(Boudleaux Bryant)
Why must you always try to make me over
Take me as I am or let me go
White lilies never grow on stalks of clover
Take me as I am or let me go.
You're trying to reshape me in a mold love
In the image of someone you used to know
But I won't be a standing for an old love
Take me as I am or let me go.
--- Instrumental ---
You've tried to change me ever since you met me
Take me as I am or let me go
If you don't want me like I am forget me
Take me as I am or let me go.
Then take me as I am or let me go...
Why must you always try to make me over
Take me as I am or let me go
White lilies never grow on stalks of clover
Take me as I am or let me go.
You're trying to reshape me in a mold love
In the image of someone you used to know
But I won't be a standing for an old love
Take me as I am or let me go.
--- Instrumental ---
You've tried to change me ever since you met me
Take me as I am or let me go
If you don't want me like I am forget me
Take me as I am or let me go.
Then take me as I am or let me go...
