Friends remain they linger, to hear my last refrain Die away before they step back into the rain Their kindness is what I depend on For no one remembers, the singer, just the song
Stay who you are You'll break my heart if you change The world can be cruel, lonely Loving you only By taking away what's true Stay who you are Stay who you are
More money everybody needs, the maze which we get lost in feeds The clichés that we swallow as we follow our dreams The dreams you carry on your back, are heavy but you live with that Till someone who is out there sings along
Stay who you are You'll break my heart if you change The world can be cruel, lonely Loving you only By taking away what's true Stay who you are Yea, stay who you are Stay who you are Stay who you are
So if you feel like a shadow you should know that I'm near, Know I can see you from the back row here So dream on… so dream on…
Stay who you are You'll break my heart if you change The world can be cruel, lonely Loving you only By taking away what's true By taking away what's true Stay who you are Stay who you are Stay who you are Come on and stay who you are Ooh, stay who you are Ooh, stay who you are
