"The Morning Papers" Lyrics

Buy from iTunes: Prince

He realized that she was new 2 love
Naive in every way
Every schoolboy's fantasy she was
That's why he had 2 wait
If he poured his heart into a glass and offered it like wine
She could drink and be back in time 4 the morning papers
They could take a walk down the ocean side
Make a wish on every wave
They could find a carousel and ride
Or kiss in every cave
They could contemplate the entire universe or just one star
Oh, just how far was the walk 4 the morning papers?
Yeah
Let me play it 4 U one time, oh oh
Well
Hey
Shucks

Why is age more than a number when it comes 2 love?
Should we ask the ones who speculate
When they don't know what it's made of?
Should we ask the moonlight on your face or the raindrops in your
hair?
Or should we ask the man who wrote it there in the morning papers?
Hey
Should we ask the moonlight on your face or the raindrops in your
hair?
Should we ask the man who wrote it there in the morning papers?
Oh yes!

Somebody help me sing it now
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
Oh yeah – hey, hey, hey
Yes
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
G'on! Play!
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
OK
