Love Story Lyrics

You know it's alright

Just to take me home

To your serious house, with your serious tones

You're a serious man, with a serious smile

But the summer is hot and I might surprise you



In a very short while we'll have left them behind

With their faces quite pained

As they try to remind themselves

Oh, it's really so wrong

It's really so out

And it's really not cool to take a young girl about



And I know the young man with a century's face

A philosopher king - he will try to amaze

With examples of love and examples of hate

And to see them explode

We will just have to



It's a simple love story

It grows better all the time

You can tell me all about it

But first I'll tell you about mine



You know it's alright to be trustful, have tact

But the problem's complex

When you keep holding back

We could talk for an hour

We could talk for a day

But the people we know would still have their say



Talk of such virtuous women

Talk of such noble men

But if I'm on the level I have met none of them

Oh, I've met troubled people with deep and dark thoughts

Who have hallowed my name

And sworn I will get caught

But why waste real feeling and

Why waste our time

To let the earth bow to no virtue of



It's a simple love story

It grows better all the time

You can tell me all about it

But first I'll tell you about mine



You know it's alright to just make mistakes

But to tail in with hurt - is the gravest make

We all create lives which we don't understand

But to point the accused is a job for no man

And we curse our own longing - and curse our own ways

I won't be satisfied with my soul that's



It's a simple love story

It grows better all the time

You can tell me all about it

Now I've told you about mine
