you pick up the pieces
and you put them away
in cozy little boxes
save them for another day
you cleaned up the messes
and you glued down the strays
ooh now you're ready for love
I don't do the dishes
and I won't pay the bills
and I like to keep the laundry piled up in little hills
you can take me or leave me
'cause I'll do what I will
ooh but I'm ready for love
I won't change if I'm too much girl for you
I won't change cause I don't want to
I won't change cause I don't want to
no it's a shame but I'm telling you the truth
I won't change cause I don't want to
I won't change cause I don't want to
no I don't no I don't
I'm sick of pretending
no I don't understand
all the time that we spend playing games
we never want to land
so I'll make this one easy
yeah if you want to please me
than you'll take me as I am
want to run around in circles
I get dizzy my legs get tired
you tried you started with a purpose
but all the things that you denied
are growing taller in the dark
and twisting tight around you heart
they haunt you while you try to sleep
come bubbling back up from the deep
you wrestle and you try to fight
but you've been swallowed by this night
and now you're wanting to be free
you never should have changed for me
I won't change if I'm too much girl for you
I won't change cause I don't want to
I won't change cause I don't want to
it's a shame now you're telling me the truth
I won't change cause I don't want to
I won't change cause I don't want to
no I don't no I don't
