I saw you on the avenue

You looked so tired and a little blue

You were in your Sunday best

With your father's tie upon your chest

Hey, you always stood me still

And hey, you always will

In the corridor of one hotel

We once crossed paths I recall it well

Voices in an empty hall

Slamming doors to hearts that fall

Hey, you always stood me still

And hey, you always will

Always will, always will

Hey

Always will, always will

Hey

Love has been my passer by

I stood too still to catch your eye

There out on the avenue

In your father's tie I'll remember you

Hey, you always stood me still

And hey, you always will

Hey, you always stood me still

And hey, you always will

Hey, you always will
