You Don’t Have To

I see you try
And I’ve watched you fail
I’ve never seen anyone act so tuff
Yet be so frail

You get up
Every time you fall
The world may take and take and still
You give your all

In my heart, in my mind
I see you in a diff’rent light
You brighten my world by
You just being you

You don’t have to do anything
Sensational for me to love you
You don’t have to do anything
Sensational for me to love you
You don’t ever have to do anything
I love you

You see the news
Or some social feed
Your telephone is not a mirror
That you need

Take a breath
Count to ten
Look into my eyes
Please take my hand

In my heart, in my mind
I see you in a diff’rent light
You brighten my world by
You just being you

You don’t have to do anything
Sensational for me to love you
You don’t have to do anything
Sensational for me to love you
You don’t ever have to do anything
I love you

I lived it, I tried it
And I recognize it
Just when, you make it
Someone comes along and takes it

Be who you wanna be
Live how you wanna live
Do what makes you happy

Be who you wanna be
Live how you wanna live
Do what makes you happy

But you don’t have to do anything
Sensational for me to love you
You don’t have to do anything
Sensational for me to love you
You don’t ever have to do anything
I love you
