I've been wasting way too much of my time
Living up in my mind, tryna do it alright
Spinning my wheels
Thinking that there's something I could do
To be more loved by you
I was making it my obsession
To try and earn your affection
But that all faded away
When I heard you say
Ooh, child, don't you know I love you
Just as, just as you are?
Ooh, child, don't you know I love you
Just as, just as (Just as)
Just as you are? (Telling you that you're precious)
Just as you are (Telling you that you're precious)
You turned the light on and flipped the script
I'm suddenly seeing what I used to miss
Got me living in the present tense
With a love so deep, you're the greatest gift
Feeling light as a feather
Free and without the pressure
Of ever losing your grace
Since I heard you say
Ooh, child, don't you know I love you
Just as, just as you are?
Ooh, child, don't you know I love you (I love you)
Just as, just as (Just as)
Just as you are? (Telling you that you're precious)
Just as you are (Telling you that you're precious)
You ain't gotta try so hard, try so hard
You've always been safe in my arms
You ain't gotta try so hard
Safe in my arms, in my arms
Ooh, child, don't you know I love you (I love you)
Just as, just as you are? (Always gonna love you, woo)
Ooh, child, don't you know I love you (I love you)
Just as, just as (Just the way you are)
Just as you are? (Telling you that you're precious)
Just as you are (Telling you that you're precious)
Just as you are (Telling you that you're precious)
Just as you are (Telling you that you're precious)
