Lyrics
Title: Corrine
I walk you home at night, to see you home all right.
I had cared for you for some time.
Drinking in the bar, you keep me out till Dawn
How I dreamed of having you by my side.
Corrine, don't stay here, I'm scared of you.
Is it so wrong now loving you?
Corrine, don't stay here, for I may take you.
And I'm not so certain that I do.
Like Franklin Roosevelt, he married Eleanor.
Though some very distant relative.
But I am not the same. I feel what friends would say,
That "kissing cousins shouldn't", so you see.
Corrine, don't stay here, I'm scared of you.
Is it immoral loving you?
Corrine, don't stay here, I'm so confused.
You don't know what I'm going through.
Corrine, don't stay here, for I may take you.
And I'm not so certain that I do.
That I do, love you.
That I do.
That I do.
