When we first met I would do anything to be with you

I lost myself I'm not the same

I changed the things you asked me to

Became somebody else for you

So love me now or leave me this way

Leave me this way

The seasons came and went again

And every day I played pretend

I thought that we would be okay

But February brought the rain

And washed the lies off of my face

So love me now or leave me this way

'Cause I can't be all that you want

No I can't be all that you need

I won't go on playing along

Won't you set me free

And well love me for me

Could you love me for me

So why do we fall apart

And hide the pieces in the dark

I finally learned from my mistakes

I shed the mask that I was in

This is me in my own skin

So love me now or leave me this way

'Cause I can't be all that you want

No I can't be all that you need

I won't go on playing along

Won't you set me free

I wanted to believe in us

But I can never be enough

To live up to the girl of your dream

I finally woke up today

And relized that I'm okay with who I am

So love me for me

Could you love me for me

Love me or leave me this way

Leave me this way

Leave me this way

'Cause you can't be all that I want

No you can't be all that I need

I won't go on playing along

Won't you set me free

So I can be me Yeah

No I won't go on playing along

Won't you set me f
