Just The Way You Are
Slow & Newland Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come stay the weekend
Let's get so drunk that
We tell each other what
We always conceal

It's something different
I can't articulate
The way I feel but
I just can't stop

Praying I can keep you near
I hope I get this right cause it feels
Like a dream

And I don't ever want to wake
Up in a version of life where
You're not on my team

Let me warm up your cold, cold heart
Let me warm you up, let me warm you up
I can love you just as you are
I can help you see that you're already enough

For me
I know it's hard to believe
With everything you've been told before
But you don't have to be cold

I know it's been hard
I know that trust felt like a mirage
Always one lie out of reach

I swear I'm different
I've made mistakes but I walked away
And now I promise I'm

Never gonna break your heart
I know I'll do this right cause it feels
Like a dream

Cause I don't ever want to wake
Up in a version of life where
You're not on my team

Let me warm up your cold, cold heart
Let me warm you up, let me warm you up
I can love you just as you are
I can help you see that you're already enough

For me
I know it's hard to believe




With everything you've been through before
But you don't have to be cold

They express a hope to keep the person they are singing to close, wanting to get it right and make it feel like a dream.


The chorus emphasizes the desire to warm up the other person's "cold, cold heart."

The singer reassures them that they can love them just as they are, and they can help them see their own worth. The song recognizes that the person may find it hard to believe due to past experiences, but they emphasize that they don't have to be cold anymore. The song ends with a repetition of these sentiments, underscoring the longing for a deep and authentic connection.

Eu estava há quase 20 anos procurando essa música, tinha vasculhados todas as playlists do Spotify, vagalume até que eu mandei um direct pro Adriano Pagani cantarolando e descrevendo a música é gentilmente ele desvendou esse mistério que rondava na minha cabeça há anos!! Estou ouvindo em looping! Valeu Adriano!!
