Nobody’s Perfect

Lady, why you always tryin’ to change me, let me be
Thought you knew I’m the same dude you fell in love with before
Was it something that I said or did to make you change?
Tryin’ to love you but you’re tryin’ to make me change

I can’t understand it, why you tryin’ to change me?
Don’t you know that I’m the same guy that you fell in love with before?
You accepted me for who I was, baby
Now you want to change everything about me

Lady, why you always tryin’ to change me, let me be
Thought you knew I’m the same dude you fell in love with before
Was it something that I said or did to make you change?
Tryin’ to love you but you’re tryin’ to make me change

We both know that nobody’s perfect
Girl, you must admit you have shortcomings just like I do
Only difference is I’m not tryin’ to change you
Baby, can you give me the same respect I give you?

Lady, why you always tryin’ to change me, let me be
Thought you knew I’m the same dude you fell in love with before
Was it something that I said or did to make you change?
Tryin’ to love you but you’re tryin’ to make me change

I can’t understand it, why you tryin’ to change me
Why?
I can’t understand it, why you tryin’ to change me
Why?
