Open Book |
| It’s clear to us this love affair |
| Has self combusted everywhere |
| And I don’t feel so debonair |
| My piano collects dust |
| A funeral with no mourners |
| I wish that I’d turned corners |
| To see the signs that warn us |
| But I didn’t make a fuss |
| Well, my life keeps on spinnin' |
| It’s this drunken procession |
| I can’t learn my lessons |
| These plates that I’m spinnin' |
| Soon they’ll smash on the ground |
| Make a loud crashing sound |
| And I am still an open book |
| And you can have a secret look |
| Inside |
| Inside |
| As children make their way to class |
| I sit and raise another glass |
| 'Cause you don’t dwell much on the past |
| When it keeps haunting you |
| Oh, the marching band stomps down the block |
| And makes the babies' cradles rock |
| And my keys, they don’t turn the lock |
| Perhaps I don’t want them to |
| Well, my life keeps on spinnin' |
| It’s this drunken procession |
| I can’t learn my lessons |
| These plates that I’m spinnin' |
| Soon they’ll smash on the ground |
| Make a loud crashing sound |
| And I am still an open book |
| And you can have a secret look |
| Inside |
| Inside |
| Well, my life keeps on spinnin' |
| It’s this drunken procession |
| I can’t learn my lessons |
| These plates that I’m spinnin' |
| Soon they’ll smash on the ground |
| Make a loud crashing sound |
| And I am still an open book |
| And you can have a secret look |
| And I am still an open book |
| And you can have a secret look |
| And I am still an open book |
| And you can have a secret look |
| Inside |
| Inside |
