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?
