Just The Way You Are

Iris DeMent


I'm in love because I know you
And I'm sorry I don't show you
And if I find that you ain't by me
I'm afraid no one will know the things you see
How could you believe in someone sorry and sad like me
I know the deal and I thank you anyways
And if you leave you know I'm crawling at your feet
You never get weak when I'm leaning hard on you

And I guess that's just the way you are

And all the things that you don't show me
Like when you pretend that you don't know me
I waste a dime and I can't call you
I'll spend a lifetime if I fall for you
How could you believe in someone sorry and sad like me
I know the deal and I thank you anyways
And if you leave you know I'm crawling at your feet
You never get weak when I'm leaning hard on you

And I guess that's just the way you are
