YOU SAY THE FEELING THAT YOU FEEL FOR ME IS REAL,
I KNOW WE'VE SAID SOME THINGS THAT ONLY TIME COULD HEAL,
I KNOW IT'S GOT YOU WORRIED,
I KNOW IT'S GOT YOU RUNNIN' AWAY,
BUT IF YOU REALLY STOP AND THINK ABOUT IT,
THAT'S THE WAY IT WILL BE,
NOTHIN' WE CAN DO,
I'M GONNA BE ME, YOU'RE GONNA BE YOU.
IT SEEMS WITH EVERY ROAD WE VENTURE DOWN ALONE,
IT ONLY SERVES TO MAKE US FEEL MORE ON OUR OWN,
I'M ONLY LEADING MY LIFE,
I KNOW YOU'RE ONLY LEADING YOUR OWN,
AND NEITHER ONE OF US COULD LIVE WITHOUT IT,
THAT'S THE WAY IT WILL BE,
NOTHIN' WE CAN DO,
I'M GONNA BE ME, YOU'RE GONNA BE YOU.
WHEN YOU GONNA UNDERSTAND,
THERE'S NEVER BEEN A PERFECT PLAN FOR LOVE,
TO KNOW IT'S GONNA LAST LONGER.
WHEN YOU GONNA REALIZE,
YOU HAVE TO MAKE A SACRIFICE EACH DAY,
TO KEEP OUR LOVE GROWING STRONGER.
AS WE ARGUE AND WE COMPROMISE OUR WAYS,
YOU KNOW I NEED YOU MORE WITH EVERY CHANGING DAY.
LOVE IS NEVER SIMPLE,
YOU KNOW IT'S NEVER EASY TO GIVE,
AND NEITHER ONE OF US COULD EVER DOUBT IT,
THAT'S THE WAY IT WILL BE,
NOTHIN' WE CAN DO,
I'M GONNA BE ME, YOU'RE GONNA BE YOU.
THAT'S THE WAY IT WILL BE,
NOTHIN' WE CAN DO,
I'M GONNA BE ME, YOU'RE GONNA BE YOU.
