Everybody's lookin' for a happy ending Before the real story even begins It's so easy to pretend you're not pretending Till the naked truth comes walkin' on in
But we ain't runnin' when the truth gets hot That's how ya find out just how much you've really got
CHORUS Let's make a long story longer Let's make this strong love a little bit stronger Our star is gonna shine, shine even brighter Believe what we feel, keep it real Make a long story longer
The seed of love is so deeply planted Inside the heart is where it lives and grows We'll keep it safe 'cause we don't take it for granted Let the hard rains fall, let the cold wind blow
Every storm is just a lesson to learn Just bring us closer with every page we turn baby
CHORUS Ya gotta stand the test of time If ya wanna keep the treasure you find Some can only dream about forever But look at us baby, we're creatin' it together
CHORUS Let's make a long story longer Let's make this strong love a little bit stronger Baby, live what we feel, keep it real Make a long story longer Let's make a long story longer
