Take Me As I Am

<br>You imagine when you see her<br>that she`s nothing less that perfect<br>That she has no aspirations<br>Beyond driving in her car<br>The car she looks so good in<br>Will she ever look that good again<br>you`ll never have to know<br>Because she`s gone<br><br>She passes in the left lane<br>And you`re turned on by the chase<br>Her hair flies in the wind<br>As your mind begins to race<br>The grass is always greener<br>But I wish you could have seen her<br>Drunk and lying with the gutter in her face<br><br>Take me as I am<br>Take me as I am<br>For the woman that I am<br>Take me as I am<br><br>You think she knows the bible<br>And can swin the English Channel<br>Writes novels in her spare time<br>In a cabin in her woods<br>You wish I`d gone to college<br>And you wish I`d let my hair grow<br>you wish I didn`t have so many moods<br><br>Take me as I am<br>Take me as I am<br>For the woman that I am<br>Take me as I am<br>Take me as I am<br><br>Once you said you were in love with me<br>And maybe you still are<br>But the passion you once showed me<br>Now is lost among the stars<br>And you fancy some new fancy girl<br>Will come and change your life around<br>But she just turned the corner in her car<br><br>While for some other dreamin` driver<br>I am that romantic stranger<br>Lookin` better than I am<br>More mysterious by far<br>Speeding through his dreams<br>While I`m drivin` in my car<br><br>Take me as I am<br>Take me as I am<br>For the woman that I am<br>Take me as I am<br>Take me as I am
