Lyrics
[Chorus] 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 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 1] We bought a lot of stuff 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 how to smile at people when they pick on you 'Cause if you stay with us you grow up pretty kooky too [Chorus] 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] And if you еver have to go to school Remеmber how it messed up this old fool Don't pick fights with the bullies or the cads 'Cause 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 [Chorus] 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 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
