JUST THE WAY YOU ARE
The Bella's Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, her eyes, her eyes make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair falls perfectly without her tryin'
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday

Uh, uh, I was thinkin' bout her, thinkin' bout me, thinkin' bout us, who we gonna be
(I know, I know, when I compliment her she won't believe me)
Opened my eyes, and it was only just a dream
(It's so, it's so, sad to think that she can't see what I see)
(But every time she asks me "do I look okay, you know I'll say)
It was only just a dream

When I see your face
(So I traveled back down that road will she come back, no one knows)
There's not a thing that I would change, cause you're amazing, just the way you are
(I realized, it was only just a dream, it was only just a dream)

When I see your face
(So I traveled back down that road will she come back, no one knows)
There's not a thing that I would change, Cause you're amazing, just the way you are
(I realized, it was only just a dream, it was only just a dream)





When I see your face
(Face)

Overall Meaning

The song Just the Way You Are by The Bella's is a heartfelt tribute to a woman's beauty and the singer's love for her. The opening lines describe the woman's eyes as so beautiful that they make the stars look dull in comparison. The lyrics then move on to her hair, which falls perfectly without any effort on her part, illustrating her natural beauty. The singer proclaims to tell her how beautiful she is every day, emphasizing how much he admires her.


The chorus delves into the singer's dream in which he is thinking about the woman he loves, and how they will be together in the future. Though he compliments her, he worries that she won't believe him, suggesting her insecurities. This is reinforced by the lines "it's so sad to think that she can't see what I see." These lyrics resonate with many people who may feel insecure about their appearance. The singer concludes that he realizes it was only a dream because he cannot believe that someone so perfect could love him.


The second half of the song repeats the chorus, but it becomes clear that the singer is a lost lover. He reminisces about the good times they had, but wonders if she will come back. The lines illustrate his regret for not appreciating her when he had the chance. The chorus is repeated twice more emphasizing the singer's acceptance that she is amazing just the way she is.

Lyrics


Oh, her eyes, her eyes make the stars look like they're not shining.
Her hair, her hair falls perfectly without her tryin.
She's so beautiful. And I tell her everyday.

Uh, Uh, I was thinkin' bout her, thinkin' bout me, thinkin' bout us, who we gonna be
(I know, I know, when I compliment her she won't believe me.)
Opened my eyes, and it was only just a dream.
(It's so, it's so, sad to think that she can't see what I see.)
(But every time she asks me "do I look okay, you know I'll say)
It was only just a dream.

When I see your face,
(So I traveled back down that road will she come back, no one knows.)
There's not a thing that I would change. Cause you're amazing, just the way you are.
(I realized, it was only just a dream. it was only just a dream)

When I see your face,
(So I traveled back down that road will she come back, no one knows.)
There's not a thing that I would change. Cause you're amazing, just the way you are.
(I realized, it was only just a dream. it was only just a dream)

When I see your face
(Face)
