Take Me As I Am (Or Let Me Go)

(Boudleaux Bryant)

Why must you always try to make me over
Take me as I am or let me go
White lilies never grow in fields of clover
Take me as I am or let me go.

You're trying to reshape me like your love in the image
Of someone you used to know
But I won't be a standing for the cold love
Take me as I am or let me go.

You're trying to reshape me like your love in the image
If someone you used to know
But I won't be a standing for the cold love
Take me as I am or let me go...
