Just The Way You Are
±ÈÀûÇÇBilly Joel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't go changing to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore

I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times; I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are

Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are

I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
What will it take till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you?

I said I love you and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart




I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are

Take love and take care of your love one.
Here the lyrics:
Oh, her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shinin'
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her tryin'
She's so beautiful and I tell her everyday
Yeah, I know, I know
When I compliment her, she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so
Sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me, "Do I look okay?" I say
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are Yeah
Her lips, her lips
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me Her laugh, her laugh
She hates, but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful and I tell her everyday
Oh, you know, you know
You know I'd never ask you to change
If perfect's what you're searchin' for, then just stay the same
So don't even bother askin' if you look okay You know I'll say
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are
The way you are
The way you are
Girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change 'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change 'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are
Yeah

@Clauder.

"Just The Way You Are" de Bruno Mars é uma ode à beleza natural e a aceitação incondicional de uma pessoa amada. A música celebra as qualidades únicas e a essência da pessoa amada, independentemente de quaisquer inseguranças ou dúvidas que ela possa ter.

A música começa com o cantor hipnotizado pelos atributos físicos da pessoa amada, seus olhos "fazendo as estrelas parecerem não brilhar" e seu cabelo "caindo perfeitamente sem ela tentar".

Mas a apreciação vai além do superficial. Ele encontra beleza em seus lábios que ele "poderia beijar o dia todo", seu riso que ele acha "sexy", e até mesmo em suas dúvidas de aparência ("não é tão triste pensar que ela não vê o que eu vejo").

O ponto central da música é a garantia do cantor de que ele ama a pessoa amada "Just The Way You Are".

Ele a encoraja a parar de procurar perfeição imaginária ("se perfeito é o que você está procurando, então apenas fique a mesma") e a abraçar sua autenticidade ("não se preocupe em perguntar se você está bem").

O refrão repete "quando eu vejo seu rosto, não há nada que eu mudaria. Porque você é incrível, do jeito que você é," enfatizando a aceitação completa e o amor sincero pela pessoa como ela é.

"Just The Way You Are" é uma música bonita e comovente que celebra o amor genuíno e a aceitação total de uma pessoa amada. É um lembrete para apreciar as qualidades únicas e a beleza natural das pessoas ao nosso redor e para amar e aceitar a nós mesmos do jeito que somos.

Espero que essa interpretação tenha sido útil!

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are...
