Beautiful Story Lyrics - Singles - Sonny & Cher

What's your name, is it Jane? 

Would you mind sitting next to a silly old fool? 

It's just that I'm tired of wasting my hours 

Talking to trees, watching the flowers grow 

Watching birds, chasing bees 

Little boys scraping knees 

Even my tears have all dried 

Can I sit by your side? 

Don't misunderstand me 

I'm just an old man with no place to go 

And if you oblige me and sit here beside me 

I'll tell you a story, a beautiful story 

That you might not know, please don't go 

Pardon me, Mister Tree 

I hope that I didn't offend you before 

You are my friend but I wanted much more 

Now I'm back once again 

Just like always before 

Watchin' birds chasin' bees 

Little boys scrapin' knees 

Even my tears have all dried 

Can I sit by your side? 

Don't misunderstand me 

I'm just an old man with no place to go 

If you oblige me and sit here beside me 

I'll tell you a story, a beautiful story 

That you might not know, please don't go
