Lyrics Don't Try To Change Me - Strawbs

Don't Try To Change Me

You brought a new kind of sound into my life
You brought love every day
You brought a new kind of sound into my life
And I threw it away
The song that I sing
Is the music you bring
You gave my eyes a new sight they’d never had before
You brought beauty every day
You gave my eyes a new sight they’d never had before
And I threw it away
The song that I sing
Is the music I bring
Don’t try to change me
I’m doing the best I can
Don’t try to change me
I’m happy the way I am
You gave the mornings a light they’d never seen before
You brought love every day
You gave my mornings a light I’d never seen before
And I threw it away
The song that I sing
Is the music I bring
Don’t try to change me
I’m doing the best I can
Don’t try to change me
I’m happy the way I am
The sound they appeared to hear
Was the sound that didn’t disappear
But stayed forever
You are love, you need love
You know that much better than I do
You brought a new kind of sound into my life
You brought music every day
You brought a new kind of sound into my life
And I threw it away
The song that I sing
Is the music we bring
Don’t try to change me
I’m doing the best I can
Don’t try to change me
I’m happy the way I am
Don’t try to change me
