Lyrics

Who will run my family business?
I leave it mostly unfinished
Why, why can’t I?
My oldest is getting married
My youngest can barely bare me
Alive, live, live, live
Oh sweet girl remember this
The saddest ones cannot resist
They’ll keep you if you fall for it
But I promise they will never notice
A-ha
A-ha
A-ha
A-ha
Now I am a gentleman, a gentleman
I taught you how the water moves
Of course I love you a little bit, a little bit
And that does more than I can do
What gives, give it to me
What gives, give it to me
What gives, give it to me
What gives, give it to me
I admit everything you know
An aimless man with places to go
Again, again
Oh sweet girl remember this
The saddest ones cannot resist
They’ll keep you if you fall for it
But I promise they will never notice
A-ha
What gives, give it to me
What gives, give it to me
What gives, give it to me
What gives, give it to me
