Lyrics
I’ve been reading such romantic stories
Tales of love that set the heart aflame
Pages that entrance with a new romance
But each plot is really quite the same
Chorus
He holds her in his arms
Would you, would you?
He tells her of her charms
Would you, would you?
They met as you and I
And they were only friends
But before the story ends
He’ll kiss her with a sigh
Would you, would you?
If the girl were I
Would you, would you?
And would you dare to say
“Let’s do the same as they”?
I would, would you?
Chorus
She holds him in her arms
Would you, would you?
She tells him of his charms
Would you, would you?
They met as you and I
And they were only friends
But before the story ends
She’ll kiss him with a sigh
Would you, would you?
If the boy were I
Would you, would you?
And would you dare to say
“Let’s do the same as they”?
I would, would you?
