There′s a sentimental story
Of two people that I know
And the people in the story
Always loved each other so
Friday nights they go to movies
And on Saturday a dance
Oh, the people in the story
Lived a story book romance


When they had a lovers' quarrel
No, I don′t recall the reason why
I just know they had a quarrel
And the boy has said goodbye
Now he's begging for forgiveness
And the chance to start anew
We're the people in the story
I′m the boy the girl is you

Then they had a lovers′ quarrel
No, I don't recall the reason why
I just know they had a quarrel
And the boy has said goodbye

Now he′s begging for forgiveness
And the chance to start a new
We're the pople in the story
I′m the boy the girl is you (Sha la la la la)
Sha la la la la
Sha la la la la
Sha la la la la
