Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Will you stay in our lovers' story?
If you stay, you won't be sorry
'Cause we believe in you
Soon you'll grow, so take a chance
With a couple of kooks hung up on romancing
[Verse 2]
Will you stay in our lovers' story?
If you stay, you won't be sorry
'Cause we believe in you
Soon you'll grow, so take a chance
With a couple of kooks hung up on romancing
[Verse 3]
Bought some things to keep you warm and dry
And a funny old crib on which the paint won't dry
I bought you a pair of shoes
A trumpet you can blow and a book of rules
On what to say to people if they pick on you
'Cause if you stay with us you'll grow up pretty kooky too
[Verse 4]
If you stay in our lovers' story?
Won't you stay? You won't be sorry
'Cause we believe in you
Soon you'll grow, so take a chance
With a couple of kooks hung up on romancing
[Verse 5]
And if you ever have to go to school
Remember what they did to this old fool
Don't pick fights with the bullies or the cads
I'm not much cop at punching other people's dads
And if the homework brings you down
Then we'll throw it on the fire and take the car downtown
And we'll watch the crazy people race around
[Verse 6]
Will you stay in our lovers' story?
If you stay you won't be sorry
'Cause we believe in you
Soon you'll grow, so take a chance
With a couple of kooks hung up on romancing
