Darius Rucker › Lyrics › This Is My World

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
That I can't get used to all you want me to be
I just can't pretend to be anyone else
'Cuz 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 said, this is how it is
I got my own life to live
And you can either accept me, or baby

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
Girl, I can't get used to
All you want me to be
And I just can't pretend
To be anyone else, oh
'Cuz it's not really me

This is my world and this is who I am
And I'm not trying to give up myself
To make your life better, now
She said, this is how it is
I got my own life to live
And you can either accept me, or baby

This is my world, this is who I am
And I'm not trying to give up myself
To make your life better
She said, 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 giving you all I can now
You said, love is not enough
And I know 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 trying to give up myself
To make your life better
She said, this is how it is
I got my life, life to live
And you can either accept me, or baby

This is my world, this is who I am
And I'm not trying to give up myself
To make your life better, now
She said, this is how it is
And I've got my life to live
And you can either accept me or baby, let me go

This is my world, my world
Baby, let me go, baby, let me go
Oh, this is who I am, where I live
Got my own life to give

Oh oh, this is my world
I'm not trying to change you
This is who I am
Please let me be me
