Love me for what i am - Carpenters

Love me for what I am Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We fell in love
On the first night that we met
Together we've been happy
I have very few regrets
The ordinary problems
Have not been hard to face
But lately little changes
Have been slowly taking place

[Pre-Chorus]
You're always finding something
Is wrong in what I do
But you can't rearrange my life
Because it pleases you

[Chorus]
You've got to love me for what I am
For simply being me
Don't love me for what you intend
Or hope that I will be
And if you're only using me
To feed your fantasy
You're really not in love
So let me go, I must be free

[Verse 2]
If what you want
Isn't natural for me
I won't pretend to keep you
What I am I have to be
The picture of perfection
Is only in your mind
For all your expectations
Love can never be designed

[Pre-Chorus]
We either take each other
For everything we are
Or leave the life we've made behind
And make another start

[Chorus]
You've got to love me for what I am
For simply being me (Simply being me)
Don't love me for what you intend
Or hope that I will be
And if you're only using me
To feed your fantasy
You're really not in love
So let me go, I must be free

[Post-Chorus]
Ah, ah, ah, ah-ah

[Outro]
And if you're only using me
To feed your fantasy
You're really not in love
So let me go, I must be free
You're really not in love
So let me go, I must be free
