Richard Rodgers
Stay
I am not the dream come true
But stay
Not perfection, nor are you
But stay
Who is brilliant, who is witty?
Am I handsome? Are you pretty?
Throw the dream away
Stay and stay and stay

Did you wish a duke?
At least a duke you should have
If I could have been a duke
For you, I would have
All the things you should have
I cannot supply you
I would give you
I would buy you

I am not the dream come true
But stay
No one is the dream come true
But stay
Here we have this special feeling
No denying, no concealing
Throw the dream away
Stay and stay and stay and stay and stay
