    Unreal. That voice, that control, those arrangements, those tasty tasty chords. Absolute fire.

    Billy Joel said that he got tired of this song and don't play it anymore at concert. I'm sure that he will change his mind and fell joy again from it after listing your beautiful version.

    If I had to name one kind of music or musician that defines my youth, I would be Billy Joel. Oh, and Abba. We always played these records in the 80s and 90s. I still love these songs, Just the way you are, Honesty, She’s always a woman, I always sing (yell?) along (with harmonies!) to these songs in the car, with the volume turned “up to eleven”.
    Loved your version! Keep ‘m coming :-)

    LYRICS:
    Don't go changing to try and please me
    You never let me down before, mmm
    Don't imagine you're too familiar
    And I don't see you anymore
    I would not leave you in times of trouble
    We never could have come this far, mmm
    I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
    I'll take you just the way you are
    Don't go trying some new fashion
    Don't change the color of your hair, mmm
    You always have my unspoken passion
    Although I might not seem to care
    I don't want clever conversation
    I never want to work that hard, mmm
    I just want someone that I can talk to
    I want you just the way you are
    I need to know that you will always be
    The same old someone that I knew
    Oh, but what will it take till you believe in me
    The way that I believe in you?
    I said I love you, that's forever
    And this I promise from the heart, mmm
    I couldn't love you any better
    I love you just the way you are, right
    I don't want clever conversation
    I never want to work that hard, mmm
    I just want someone that I can talk to
    I want you just the way you are
