Lyric Just The Way I Am

If you hear me crying in the night
Pretend that you don t hear me it s alright
Don t ask me why I m crying, please don t make a sound
I don t know why, it s just the way I am
And if you think I act a little strange
And you don t understand when I do things
Like running through the fields while the rain is pouring down
I don t know why, it s just the way I am

And even though you may not understand me
I hope that you ll accept me like I am
For there are many sides of me, my mind and spirit must be free
And I might smile when other folks would frown
I don t know why, it s just the way I am

I might go out chasing butterflies
And if I fail to catch one I might cry
And if you want me you might find me in the meadow walking round
I don t know why, it s just the way I am

I might be home and busy cleaning house
And in the middle of my work I might go out
And go play games with children at the playground
It makes me happy, and that s just the way I am

And even though you may not understand me
I hope that you ll accept me like I am
For there are childish sides of me
My mind and spirit must be free
I might smile when you think I should frown
I don t know why, it s just the way I am
