The look on your face
It could never explain your heart
And the touch of my lips
It could never tell you my thoughts
And you want me to change (I can't get used to)
That I can't get used to all you want me to be
I just can't pretend (to be anyone else)
To be anyone else, 'cause it's not really me
This is my world, this is who I am
And I'm not gonna give up myself to make your life better
She says, "This is how it is?" I got my own life to live
And you can either accept me or (baby, let me go)
And if it's love that we share
Then we can withstand all the obstacles that life brings forth
And I will receive you
For who you are, who you were and baby, who you will be
But you want me to change (I can't get used to)
Still, I can't get used to all you want me to be
And I just can't pretend (to be anyone else)
To be anyone else, oh, 'cause it's not really me
This is my world, this is who I am
And I'm not tryin' to give up myself to make your life better
Now (she says), "This is how it is?" I got my own life to live
And you can either accept me or (baby, let me go)
Baby, this is my world, this is who I am
And I'm not tryin' to give up myself to make your life better
Oh, (she says), "This is how (it is)?" I got my own life to live
And you can either accept me or baby, let me go
You said, "I promise you the stars"
And I'm givin' you all I can now, you said love is not enough
And I know (and I know) you will see (you will see)
If your life turns around in my heart, there is room for you
It's me and my world, this is who I am
And I'm not tryin' to give up myself to make your life better
She says, "This is how (it is)?" I got my life (life to live)
And you can either accept me or (baby, let me go)
Baby, this is my world, (this is) who I am
And I'm not tryin' to give up myself to make your life better
Now, (she says), "Oh, this is how (it is)?" And I got my life (life to live)
And you can either accept me or baby, let me go (baby, let me go)
This is my world, my world (la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la)
Baby, let me go (baby, let me go)
Oh, this is who I am, where I live (la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la)
Got my own life to live, oh, oh (la-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la)
(This is) my world
I'm not tryin' to change you, hmm
This is who I am
Please let me be
