Please don't leave. Please don't go.
You don't know what your heart really sees.
The love that you want, is all around you now.
It haunts sincere places like these.
Please don't leave. Can't you stay?
I still say, if you're searchin' for the keys.
A love strong as steel, can only be found
In real, sincere places like these.
chorus: Must one go away to be found by the world,
While one stays at home to be lost?
While one runs the gauntlet of fortune and fame
Why must another bear the cost?
Oh, and why does a kite follow every breeze?
Why can't we find the perfect harmonies?
Why can't a man be the way that he believes,
In small, sincere places like these?
Please don't leave. Stay awhile.
I'll try to smile and pretend to be at ease.
We'll try shaking hands, 'cause that's what one does,
In bland, sincere places like these.
