            This is a story

            Of Doris and Laurie

            And they got a friendship to the end

            And they got a love that they defend

            Doris and Laurie

            Strive to be happy

            Cause they got a love that most don’t understand

            But they’re willing to carry out their plan

            Oh Doris

            And Laurie

 

They met by chance at a fashion show

Doris a model and Laurie a spectator

Well Doris always had a liking to ladies

And Laurie she wanted to be a star

And Laurie been in affairs with two men

Who both had been a bit too abusive

And when Doris approached her for a drink

She didn’t understand the initiative

And      This is a story

            Of Doris and Laurie

            And they got a friendship to the end

            And they got a love that they defend

            Doris and Laurie

            Strive to be happy

            Cause they got a love that most don’t understand

            But they’re willing to carry out their plan

            Oh Doris

            And Laurie

 

As the weeks passed and their bond grew

And Laurie learnt what love was about

She held to Doris so tight at night

She knew now there wasn’t any doubt

Though some people stare with scorn

Everyday together they get down and pray

Some even say that God won’t help them

But their love will light the way

 

They know they love each other in their souls

They both been around long enough in the world

To know what love is when it’s true

They do what anyone in love would do

Who are people to call them wrong

In each other’s arm they know they belong

It’s only another love story

This one about Doris and Laurie

Oh oh oh

 

(Solo)

They keep each other holding on

Throughout the persecution that they get

It’s a partnership that’s so strong

And a love that don’t ever neglect

And when they’re lost in their passion

It takes the pressure of the world away

Doris says “I love you forever Laurie”

Laurie whispers, “You know I feel the same way”

Oh       This is a story

            Of Doris and Laurie

            And they got a friendship to the end

            And they got a love that they defend

            Doris and Laurie

            Strive to be happy

            Cause they got a love that most don’t understand

            But they’re willing to carry out their plan

            Oh Doris

            And Laurie

 

            This is a story

            Of Doris and Laurie

            And they got a friendship to the end

            And they got a love that they defend

            Doris and Laurie

            Strive to be happy

            Cause they got a love that most don’t understand

            But they’re willing to carry out their plan

            Oh Doris

            And Laurie
