Say, did I thank you for your kindness?
It's just the way you are
The sympathetic things you say and do
Made me love you from afar
Now I need to know you
And bring myself a little closer, yeah
The chance to hold you in my arms
And put our love in motion makes me say
Stay, lady, stay, baby, stay just the way you are
('Cause I would rather smile than cry)
Stay, lady, stay, baby, stay just the way you are
(Just the way you are with me)
Just the way you are
You ask me 'bout the dress you're wearing
I just love the way you are
Now don't you change a single thing for me
To me girl you're the star
You supported me
With love, honor and devotion, yeah
Now you can believe in me
And share in love's emotions and make me say
Stay, lady, stay, baby, stay just the way you are
('Cause I would rather smile than cry)
Stay, lady, stay, baby, stay just the way you are
(Just the way you are with me)
Just the way you are, just the way you are
Stay with me
Stay, lady, stay, baby, stay just the way you are
Stay, lady, stay, baby, stay just the way you are
(Just the way you are with me)
Just the way you are
Stay, lady, stay, baby, stay just the way you are
(With love and affection)
Stay, lady, stay, baby, stay just the way you are
(You supported me)
Just the way you are
(With love, honor and devotion)
Just the way you are
Just the way you are
(You supported me)
