Don't go changing, to try to please me. You never let me down before. I dont imagine, you're too familiar, and I dont see you anymore. I would not leave you, when times are troubled, 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. You need to know that you will always be, the same old someone that I knew. What will it take til you believe in me, the way that I belive in you. I said I love you, thats forever, and this I promise from the heart. I couldnt love you, any better, I love you just the way you are. I don't want clever conversations. I never want to work that hard. I just want someone, that I can talk to. I want you just the way you are.

Historically, musicians know what it is like to be outside the norm - walking the high wire without a safety net. Our experience is not so different from those who march to the beat of different drummers.
