That's Life

I wish we could be friends
But you like to insult your friends
And call them names
And I don't do that

People are different
Not everyone's the same
Some people are too sensitive
And maybe that's me

I wish that I could be
The person that you want me to be
I wish that you could be
The person that I want you to be

But I know if that were so
You wouldn't be you
And I wouldn't be me

I can't change for you
And you can't change for me
And when I stop and think about it
I really wouldn't want you to change for me

I know it grieves you
It makes me cry too
But we are who we are
And nothing will ever change that

I have your respect
And you have mine
That's all we can ask for
And I say that's fine

I wish things could be different
But in time, you'll see
That's life, that's fine
That's Okay  by me
