Stay the Way
[Verse 1]
Have you seen her down by the river
For a dime she'll tell you
The vision she sees
She longs for what people don't give her
They just say she's crazy
And all she gets is sympathy
I watched her dance in the moonlight
And I wonder how she could be so free
So I let got of all that I hold inside
She looked at me and said
This is how it's supposed to be
[Chorus]
Stay the way that you are
Don't go changing
Take each day as it comes to you
Make the most of the life that surrounds you
Live life unconditionally
[Verse 2]
As a dawn broke over the water
Her reflection was washed away with a breeze
Like the mother lets go of her daughter
I make my way back home
And remember what she said to me
[Chorus]
Stay the way that you are
Don't go changing
Take each day as it comes to you
Make the most of the life that surrounds you
Live life unconditionally
[Middle 8]
Don't go changing what you feel inside
Don't live for nobody
Cause what I found is so beautiful
Oh you must believe in all that you do
Have you seen her by the river
For a dime she'll tell you the vision she sees
She longs for what people don't give her
They just say she's crazy
And all she gets is sympathy
[Chorus]
Stay the way that you are
Don't go changing
Take each day as it comes to you
Make the most of the life that surrounds you
Live life unconditionally
[Chorus]
Stay the way that you are
Don't go changing
Take each day as it comes to you
Make the most of the life that surrounds you
Live life unconditionally
