Stay

Tell me
Where are all the Gentlemen today?
That know how to stand
that know how to stay
That will make a new start every day
That know how to smile
that know how to play

Who hold all the love
that there is to give
who never forget
and always forgive

So
Tell me
Where are all those Gentlemen today?
That know how to stand
that know how to stay
That will hold a heart when its feeling raw
Dwell in the open
and never keep a score

Who can find the words
And say them as it is
Who know how to touch
who know how to Kiss

With a Rhythm thats good
to make you feel alright
And eyes that Hold a gaze
long into the night

Who’ll find the time to walk on this Earth
Grow a garden for all that its worth
Who’ll watch the stars turn around and around
Who never grow bored
and keep their feet on the ground

So
Tell me
Where are all the Gentlemen today?
That know how to stand
that know how to stay
Who hold all the love
that there is to give
That never forget
But always forgive
