Way I Am Lyrics

I break down in the middle of filling you in on my day
Sweetly you touch and say everything's gonna be okay
Then you lead me to the place that I've been drowning
And you try to fill me after the drought
Now still I'd give almost anything for you

Chorus:
To take me
Take me the way
Take me the way I am

And you lead me to the place that I've been drowning
Then you try to fill me after the drought
Still I'd give almost anything for you

Repeat Chorus

Oh, you're fading
Oh, and it's killing you
Oh, to keep telling me
You've got to keep
You've got to keep waiting
You've got to keep
You've got to keep waiting, oh

Yet I have come so far
Still I'd give almost anything for you

Repeat Chorus

Come on...
Take me the way I am
Take me...
The way I am is enough for you
Take me the way I am

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Oh man, this song used to be one of my absolute favorites. I still love it I just don't listen to it that often anymore. I don't think I need to explain what it's about, seems obvious to me.

The best parts:

I'd give almost anything for you To take me Take me the way I am

Yet I have come so far Still I'd give almost anything for you To take me the way I am

The way I am is enough for you.

Beautiful song!
