Walk by the house every noon

 We're taking the long way, 'cause every step is too soon

 

 I wish you'd stay here, Mona

 Lasso the moon, dear, and pull it closer

 

 Trespassing free on the hill

 I'll marry you some day, dressed in white on our hill

 

 So why won't you stay here, Mona?

 And gamble your life here, Mona

 

 We started with something worth loving

 But the ending's ahead like a warning

 So what of you in the story?

 'Cause I'll do whatever it takes

 I'll bend every rule 'til it breaks

 

 Too wild, and too free to be tamed

 You're too hopeful and restless

 Like a bird in a cage

 

 I wish you'd stay here, Mona

 We can make up our rules here, Mona

 

 We started with something worth loving

 But the ending's ahead like a warning

 So what of you in the story?

 'Cause I'll do whatever it takes

 I'll bend every rule 'til it breaks

 

 I still hear you now whenever you call

 Will you stay here?

 I still hear you now whenever you call

 Will you stay here now?

 Will you stay here now?

 Will you stay here now?

 

 Will you stay here now?

 

 Will you stay here now?
