Gentleman Lyrics
I am a lovesick gentleman
Who pines and pines over the smallest things
Most of them are truly inconsequential
They are inconsequential things
So I'll write you the longest letter
Describing my feelings and all these stupid things
I'll cross my fingers that your heart melts
And you look at me and tell me "Darling, where have you been?"
I am an uncool Canadian kid
Awed and inspired by all the popular guys
Most of them are truly irresponsible
They do irresponsible things
But I'm just a heartbroke gentleman
And gentlemen never seem to get gentle women
I need a small town girl
To follow me home and teach me how to be a real man
I am a gentleman
An old soul gentleman
A plain-jane gentleman
A hold-the-door-for-you gentleman
A no good gentleman
A stupid, boring gentleman
A dumbstruck gentleman
A gentle, gentle, gentleman
Who pines and pines over the smallest things
Most of them are truly inconsequential
They are inconsequential things
Describing my feelings and all these stupid things
I'll cross my fingers that your heart melts
And you look at me and tell me "Darling, where have you been?"
Awed and inspired by all the popular guys
Most of them are truly irresponsible
They do irresponsible things
And gentlemen never seem to get gentle women
I need a small town girl
To follow me home and teach me how to be a real man
An old soul gentleman
A plain-jane gentleman
A hold-the-door-for-you gentleman
A no good gentleman
A stupid, boring gentleman
A dumbstruck gentleman
A gentle, gentle, gentleman

"An old school gentleman" or "An old soul gentleman" ?
I think it is old soul gentleman, actually. And you forgot the line "a plain jane gentleman"
