| You imagine when you see her |
| That she’s nothing less that perfect |
| That she has no aspirations |
| Beyond driving in her car |
| The car she looks so good in |
| Will she ever look that good again |
| You’ll never have to know |
| Because she’s gone |
| She passes in the left lane |
| And you’re turned on by the chase |
| Her hair flies in the wind |
| As your mind begins to race |
| The grass is always greener |
| But I wish you could have seen her |
| Drunk and lying with the gutter in her face |
| Take me as I am |
| Take me as I am |
| For the woman that I am |
| Take me as I am |
| You think she knows the bible |
| And can swin the English Channel |
| Writes novels in her spare time |
| In a cabin in the woods |
| You wish I’d gone to college |
| And you wish I’d let my hair grow |
| You wish I didn’t have so many moods |
| Take me as I am |
| Take me as I am |
| For the woman that I am |
| Take me as I am |
| Take me as I am |
| Once you said you were in love with me |
| And maybe you still are |
| But the passion you once showed me |
| Now is lost among the stars |
| And you fancy some new fancy girl |
| Will come and change your life around |
| But she just turned the corner in her car |
| While for some other dreamin' driver |
| I am that romantic stranger |
| Lookin' better than I am |
| More mysterious by far |
| Speeding through his dreams |
| While I’m drivin' in my car |
| Take me as I am |
| Take me as I am |
| For the woman that I am |
| Take me as I am |
| Take me as I am |
