(no subject)
Last night Derek and I were eating at Wendy's when one of my favorite Billy Joel songs came over the speakers. I know all the words but never really thought about them until last night. I just kept thinking about this great girl I know and how much I think this relates to her. She's going through a tough time right now and I just want her to know that I'm not the only one who feels this way about her and someday I know she'll find the ONE and he'll feel the same way. So this is for you, Erika, and for all of my friends who deserve true happiness in their lives.
Just The Way You Are
Don't go changing, to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore
I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are
Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care
I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are.
I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
What will it take till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you.
I said I love you and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart
I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are.
