VERSE1:   Spare me advise for a change   Just let me go my own way   I am the one in this thing   I know you're looking out   Checking me for last minute doubt   He makes me happy   When will you take my word      CHORUS:   You don't have to want this to work   It's my life and a love deserved   Tearing him down, yeah it's a sin   But you don't have to see   What I see in him      VERSE2:   There is respect all around   Miracles in what we found   Surely you can understand   And when I come home to him   It just confirms again and again   That I don't have to explain   But to say that he's my man      CHORUS:   And you don't have to want this to work   It's my life, it's a love deserved   Tearing him down, yeah it's a sin   But you don't have to see   What I see in him      BRIDGE:   Yes it would please me   If you'd make it easy   And open up your mind      CHORUS:   But you don't have to want this to work   It's my life and a love deserved   Tearing him down, yeah it's a sin   But you don't have to see   What I see in him      You don't have to see   What I see in him      But you don't have to see   What I see in him
