Friends remaining linger to hear my last refrain
Die away before they step back into the rain
The kindnesses where I depend on

But no one remembers the singer, just the song

[Chorus:]
Stay who you are
You'll break my heart if you change
The world can be cruel and lonely, but 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 cliches that we swallow
As we follow our dreams

The dreams you carry on your back
They're heavy but you live with that
For someone who is out there sings along

[Repeat Chorus]

Stay who you are
Yes, Stay who you are
So Stay who you are
Well Stay who you are

So if you feel like a shadow you should know a little near
Know I can see you from the back of here
So dream on, dream on

[Repeat Chorus]

By taking away what's true
Stay who you are
Oh stay who you are
Come on and stay who you are
Oooh, stay who you are
Oooh, oooh, stay who you are
