"We Will" lyrics

"We Will"

It's over now
You've had your fun
Get up them stairs go on quickly don't run
Take off your shoes
The both of you's
And leave them down outside the door
Turn the landing light
Off, no wait, leave it on it
It might make the night
That much easier to be gone
And in the morning who'll be wide awake
And eating snow flakes
As opposed to those flakes

(We will) we will
(We will) we will

That afternoon we spend the day
With uncle Frank
Remember and his wife auntie Mae
Well, do you know
Since then I've received
Up to four letters all of which repeat the same
They say thrilled to bits
Can't believe you came
We relived it both
Over time and time again
And if there's even a chance or even half
You might be our way
Would you promise to stay

(We will) we will
(We will) we will
Yeah yeah yeah

Oh, its not easy pretending
That you cannot hear
Once you've suffered the reflections within
It's no use in an ending
To proclaim from the start
That the moral of the stories to begin

On Sunday next if the weather holds
We'll have that game
But I bagsy-being-in-goal
Not because I'm good
Or because I think I should
It's just that well at my age I think standing still
Would really suit me best
Do we all agree?
Hands up those who do
Hands up those who don't
I see well in that case will we please be kind enough
If not on Sunday
To go to mass on Monday

(We will) we will
(We will) we will
Yeah yeah yeah
(We will)
