my lyricsbox
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 out to face
But lately little changes have been slowly taking place
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 if 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...

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
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
Don't love me if 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...

Instrumental...

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.
This song is from the album "Japanese Single Box", "Please Mr Postman", "Solo Lo Mejor De" and "Horizon".
