Why must you always try to make me over
Take me as i am or let me go
White lilies never grow in fields of clover
Take me as i am or let me go

You're trying to reshape me in a mold love
In the image of someone you used to know
But i won't be a standing for a cold love
Take me as i am or let me go
[ fiddle - steel ] you've tried to change me ever since you've met me
Take me as i am or let me go
And if you can't overlook my faults forget me
Take me as i am or let me go

You're trying to reshape me in a mold love...
You'll have to take me as i am or let me go
