Love Is Here To Stay

(album: Growing Up In Public - 1980)

Love is here, here to stay
love is here, here to stay
It gets proven every day
love is here, here to stay

They both love Chinese food, he hates to dress
he loves to play pinball, she wants to play next
She likes her novels long, he's into comic books
they're gilt-edged polymorphous urban but somehow it works

'Cause love is here, here to stay
love is here, here to stay
It gets proven every day
love is here, here to stay

She likes Truman Capote, he likes Gore Vidal
he likes Edgar Allan Poe, she's into Mean Joe Greene
She thinks eating meat's disgusting, he likes hot dogs
she's into Gestalt therapy
while est and the vest just make him ill
But love is here to stay

Love is here, here to stay
love is here, here to stay
It gets proven every day
love is here, here to stay
Love is here, here to stay
love is here, here to stay
It gets proven every day
love is here, here to stay
