[Chorus 1]
In a world that can be so insane
I don't think it's very strange
For me to be in love with you
I wanna know more than your brain
[Verse 1]
Into my life you were injected
Not something that I expected
Now I smile from your affection
We have made a soul connection
Just for whom does your bell toll
Don't be cold, show me your soul
[Chorus 2]
Sentimental gentlemen
Are not afraid to show you when
I am you, you're my best friend
Show me your soul
[Chorus 1]
In a world that can be so insane
I don't think it's very strange
For me to be in love with you
I wanna know more than your brain
[Verse 2]
Yes, I find you so appealing
When you show me how you're feeling
You, my friend, need not be kneeling
Open up and start revealing
Trust in me my heart is sole
I need to see, show me your soul
[Chorus 2]
Sentimental gentlemen
Are not afraid to show you when
I am you, you're my best friend
Show me your soul
[Chorus 1]
In a world that can be so insane
I don't think it's very strange
For me to be in love with you
I wanna know more than your brain
[Verse 3]
Don't expect too much from me
Perfection is no test for me
Because the best I'll ever be
Is just like you, a human being
You won't offend, I need to know
Please, my friend, show me your soul
[Chorus 2]
Sentimental gentlemen
Are not afraid to show you when
I am you, you're my best friend
Show me your soul
