You're not all alone
On the outside looking in can be so lonely
Just remenber
You're not the one and only

Let nobody tell you want to do
You've got to live your life and see it through
Keep on livin' the way you are
Just to know love will make you star

Chorus

Just be yourself
You've got to be yourself
And one no else

Just to know in life you've done you best
Given all the chance you stood the best
Just be yourself
You've got to be yourself

Everywhere you go people seem to know
You've something special
Just be yourself

The way you look
The way you smile
The way you are
You know you're something
You're something special

Chorus

Let nobody tell you want to do
You've got to live your life and see it through
Keep on livin' the way you are
Just to know love will make you star

I can't be you
You can't be me
I can't be you
You can't be me

Just be yourself
Nobody else
Nobody else but you

You know you're are something special in my life
You know you're are something special in my life
Be yourself and nobody else

Everywhere you go
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you go
Be yourself

Peolple stop & stare
They wonder everywhere
Because you're something special
You know you're something special

You need to be yourself

Everywhere you go
People seem to know
Everywhere you be
People seem to be

And nobody, and nobody
And nobody, and nobody
Nobody else
You need to be yourself
Be yourself
Be ypurself

There's nobody like you
Nobody like you
Nobody like you
Be yourself

Chorus
