If you hear me crying in the night Pretend that you don't hear me it's alright Don't ask me why I'm crying, please don't make a sound I don't know why, it's just the way I am And if you think I act a little strange And you don't understand when I do things Like running through the fields while the rain is pouring down I don't know why, it's just the way I am
And even though you may not understand me I hope that you'll accept me like I am For there are many sides of me, my mind and spirit must be free And I might smile when other folks would frown I don't know why, it's just the way I am
I might go out chasing butterflies And if I fail to catch one I might cry And if you want me you might find me in the meadow walking 'round I don't know why, it's just the way I am
I might be home and busy cleaning house And in the middle of my work I might go out And go play games with children at the playground It makes me happy, and that's just the way I am
And even though you may not understand me I hope that you'll accept me like I am For there are childish sides of me My mind and spirit must be free I might smile when you think I should frown I don't know why, it's just the way I am
