Don’t try to change me. I’m still the good old me
So why you want to go and change the way it used to be
You don't want to change the hand that fits the glove
So why you want to go and change, the guy you say you love HEY
why you want to go and change, the guy you say you love

The day that you and I first met, you said I was the one
That we would be forever, and the fun had just begun
Then you moved in and right away you start to re-arrange
And stuff that used to work for us is stuff you want to change
 
You changed the lock on our front door-said your key don’t fit.
You loved my youthful spirit now you say I can’t commit
The way I walk, the way I talk it just don’t work no more
What used to make you happy now just seems to make you sore
 
 Don’t try to change me. I’m still the good old me
So why you want to go and change the way it used to be
You don't want to change the hand that fits the glove
So why you want to go and change, the guy you say you love HEY
why you want to go and change, the guy you say you love

thought I was romantic; I could always make you smile
Now you say I’m starry-eyed immature and vile
You loved me in my old blue jeans- they’re sexy when they’re torn
But now you say they’re dirty unappealing when they’re worn
 
Don’t try to change me. I’m still the good old me
So why you want to go and change the way it used to be
You don't want to change the hand that fits the glove
So why you want to go and change, the guy you say you love HEY
why you want to go and change, the guy you say you love
