Just The Way You Are

Maybe it's foolish of me
To think that you'd stay

Sometimes we find what we're looking for…

I know you don't  really
Feel the same way

And it doesn't satisfy our expectations…

And yet I hope that
In your heart you'd find a place for me

But it's not like that with you…

As a friend
Not as an enemy

You're perfect just the way you are…

And maybe then you'd see me
As something more than just a friend

Because you're you…

Someone you can trust, love, defend

I love you.
