You always go out of your way to impress me
Don't you know by now, ain't no need to impress me?
I'm impressed every time you smile
When I feel like you mean to smile
'Cause you can be so very beautiful
When you are who you are
ย
Every morning when you wake up
You put on a new disguise
How long did you think
It would take me to realize?
Girl, the things you wore ain't real
You never tell me just how you feel
Girl, you can be so very beautiful
When you are who you are
ย
People never seem to want to be themselves
So they end up running in circles confused
Yes, confused
Just like everyone else
C'mon Alberto

Every morning when you wake up
You put on a new disguise
Just how long did you think it would take me to realize
Oh, that the things you wore ain't real?
You never tell me just how you feel
When you could be so very beautiful
When you are who you are
Yeah, when you are who you are, yeah
Oh, when you are who you are, yeah
Oh, when you are who you are, yeah
When you are who you are
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it
Oh, when you are who you are, yeah
Oh, when you are who you are, yeah
Oh, when you are who you are, yeah
Oh, when you are who you are
