[Verse 1]
Gonna stay in bed today
'Cause I can't stand the light
Don't know why I get so down
I won't be much fun tonight
And I can't believe
You still want to hang around me
[Pre-Chorus]
It's not so pretty all the time
You don't mind
To you, it's alright
[Chorus]
As I am is how you take me
Never try to push or make me different
When I talk, you listen to me
As I am is how you want me and
I know I've found the piece that's missin'
I'm lookin' at him
[Verse 2]
I'm not the girl you think you see
But maybe that's a lie
You almost know me better than
Me, myself, and I
Don't know a lot of things
But I know what I got
[Pre-Chorus]
It's not so perfect every day
I don't have to try
'Cause it all falls into place
(It all falls into place)
[Chorus]
As I am is how you take me
Never try to push or make me different
When I talk, you listen to me
As I am is how you want me and
I know I've found the piece that's missin'
I'm lookin' at him
[Bridge]
Face to face, eye to eye
You're standin' there
Feels good on the inside
I don't mind, I don't care
You're standin' there
Seein' me for the first time
Seein' me for the first time
Seein' me for the first time
[Chorus]
As I am is how you take me
Never try to push or make me different
When I talk, you listen to me
As I am is how you want me and
I know I've found the piece that's missin'
(Found the piece that's missin')
I'm lookin' at him
[Outro]
Found the piece that's missin'
Take me as I am
When I talk, you listen
Take me as I am (Yeah)
Found the piece that's missin'
Take me as I am
Gonna stay in bed today
'Cause I can't stand the light
Don't know why I get so down
I won't be much fun tonight
And I can't believe
You still want to hang around me
[Pre-Chorus]
It's not so pretty all the time
You don't mind
To you, it's alright
[Chorus]
As I am is how you take me
Never try to push or make me different
When I talk, you listen to me
As I am is how you want me and
I know I've found the piece that's missin'
I'm lookin' at him
[Verse 2]
I'm not the girl you think you see
But maybe that's a lie
You almost know me better than
Me, myself, and I
Don't know a lot of things
