Lyrics
[verse]
Don't need no fancy watch or shiny car to catch your eye
Don't need designer labels just to make a good goodbye
I'm coming as I am, no wallet full of pride
Just want to know you're feeling something on the inside
[chorus]
Love me for the way I are, not the things I got
Love me when the lights go out, love me when they're not
Don't need the diamonds, don't need the show
Just love me for the way I are, let the simple feeling grow
[verse]
Some girls want the fancy tables, some want the VIP
I just want a conversation, just you and me
Strip away the money and what's left is who I am
A little rough around the edges, but I know just where I stand
[chorus]
Love me for the way I are, not the things I got
Love me when the lights go out, love me when they're not
Don't need the diamonds, don't need the show
Just love me for the way I are, let the simple feeling grow
[bridge]
Take away the bassline, take away the beat
All that's really left here is a heart that wants to meet
No pretending, no performing, just the real thing
See if what we're building here is worth the ring
[chorus]
Love me for the way I are, not the things I got
Love me when the lights go out, love me when they're not
Don't need the diamonds, don't need the show
Just love me for the way I are, let the simple feeling grow
