Just the Way You Are
The Alex Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful and I tell her every day
Yeah I know, I know when I compliment her
Sad to think she don't see what I see
Every time she asks me do I look okay i say
When I see your face (face, 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 awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
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 every day
Oh you know, you know, you know
Id never ask you to change
If perfect is what you're searching for
Then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking
If you look okay you know I say
When I see your face (face, 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 awhile
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 (face, 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 awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
