Accept Me As I Am
Accept me as I am or gently let me go.
The person I've become is not a Burlesque show.
Accept me as I am or lightly brush my cheek.
The person I've become is not a Hide-and-Seek.
Accept me as I am or silently lament.
The person I've become is not a Circus tent.
Accept me as I am or kindly drop my hand.
The person I've become is not a One-night stand.
Accept me as I am or slowly walk away.
The person I've become is not a Broadway play.
Accept me as I am or freely seek elsewhere.
The person I've become is not a Latin square.
Accept me as I am or softly say goodbye.
The person I've become is not a Shanghai lie.
