The Book

歌詞

There's a book that I will keep forever Though it has no story, no beginning and no end. Life was lived right here upon the pages Never fade or die I wrote it here to stay with permanent ink. All the paper aging like the lines upon an older face Still these friends stay young forever Chorus See the names and count the numbers Take a look Some are gone and gone forever They live on in this book Bound and bonded Pressed so perfectly This book gripped together, spiralized and corners squared away Even name 1 wrote so carefully Now I feel I should've noted them in proud calligraphy To say thanks to them for giving me a lifetime to recall and hold them close to be remembered Chorus See the names and count the numbers Take a look Some are gone and gone forever They live on in this book Long lost friends and long lost memories I could strike them out with just one quick stroke of the pen But that would feel like murder and I just can't take them out again I could never be that killer Chorus See the names and count the numbers Take a look Some are gone and gone forever They live on in this book
