Lyrics
LET'S MAKE A SHORT STORY LONG
Words and Music by Richard Mekdeci and Jeff Stewart
The plot is simple, it's a boy meet girl
They fall in love and find a brand new world;
A place where they can live as man and wife.
It sounds like fiction but it's true life.
Cause that's exactly how it's gonna be
When they tell the tale of you and me.
In a world where lovers act like fools
We'll be the exception to the rule
CHORUS
Let's make a short story long
Let's add a thousand pages to our book of love
There's so much more to tell cause our love is strong
Let's make a short story long.
We could write a fairy tale for two
And stay in love the way true lovers do.
And as each chapter of our life unfolds
It will be the greatest story ever told
CHORUS
Let's make a short story long
Let's add a thousand pages to our book of love
There's so much more to tell cause our love is strong
Let's make a short story long.
BRIDGE
We could have kissed then said goodbye
But we found love between the lines
CHORUS
