Lyrics Open the Book - Andre Williams, My Robot Friend

Open the Book

I woke up and wrote down my bad dreams
I wrote 'til the book came unbound at the seams
Page after page like a beating heart
Reading every letter 'til i’m falling apart
Gonna rip it up and start it again
Slip another story in the garbage can
I’m gonna open the book straight to the front
For the very first time I know what just what i want
When i lay it all down line by line
I know i’ll find a way to make it better this time
You left me when the story got rough
I gave you my all but it was never nough
Now the ink on the page is gtting lighter
And i feel like a key on an old typewriter
When you lift me up just to throw me back down
I know i got it better when you’re not around
I’m gonna open the book straight to the front
For the very first time I know what just what i want
When i lay it all down line by line
I know i’ll find a way to make it better this time
