When you walk, I stumble
When you talk, I mumble
And when you smile I have to turn away

When you shine, I'm cloudy
When you climb, I'm doubting
That I won't fall before I reach the top

   But you don't care, you’re always there
   And you take me as I am, you take me as I am
   You don't attempt to change me, or rearrange my flaws


When the lightning's flashing
When the waves are crashing
And I feel like a ship that's run aground

There’s a light that's shining
Through the night, you're blinding
You lift me up before I start to drown 

   But you don't care, you’re always there
   And you take me as I am, you take me as I am
   You don't attempt to change me, or rearrange my flaws

   And you dared to understand
   And still you take me as I am
   You’ve given me a place, where I can just belong

[Solo]

   [Chorus]
