Song information On this page you can find the lyrics of the song Love in the Library, artist - Jimmy Buffett. Album song Songs You Don't Know By Heart, in the genre Иностранная авторская песняLove in the Library |
| On the corner of Government and Bay Avenue |
| The old doomsday fanatic wore a crown of kudzu |
| Sirens where wailing in the gulf coastal heat |
| And it seemed like the whole world was in forced retreat |
| I paid no attention, revolved through the door |
| Passed the newspaper rack on the worn marble floor |
| Near civil war history my heart skipped a beat |
| She was standing on fiction stretched high on bare feet |
| Love in the library, quiet and cool |
| Love in the library, there are no rules |
| Surrounded by stories surreal and sublime |
| I fell in love in the library once upon a time |
| I was the pirate and she was the queen |
| Sir Francis and Elizabeth the best there’s ever been |
| Then she strolled past my table and stopped at the stairs |
| Then sent me a smile as she reached for Flaubert |
| She gathered her books, walked while she read |
| Words never spoken but so much was said |
| You can read all you want into this rendezvous |
| But it’s safer than most things that lovers can do |
| Well stories have endings and fantasies fade |
| The guard by the door starts drawing the shade |
| So write your own ending and hope they come true |
| For the lovers and strangers on Bay Avenue |
