Book & A Cover |
| What’s that they told you |
| About a book &a cover? |
| Don’t judge so quickly |
| Is it too much to remember? |
| Cause pictures lie |
| You know |
| I’ll show |
| It’s so |
| Just give it one thought |
| What’s that they taught you? |
| To revere a kind of beauty? |
| To paint on that pretty veneer |
| And try to hide whatever’s dirty? |
| Well, faces lie |
| You’ll see |
| No sympathy |
| Just give it one thought |
| Come here and I will whisper true |
| About the things I know of you |
| And you will recognize them |
| Always… |
| As near to you as breath and bone |
| So dear to me, and yours alone |
| And I will love you for them |
| Always… |
| What’s that they tell you |
| About a book &a cover? |
| Don’t judge so quickly |
| They’ll tell you one thing and then another |
| But see what lies |
| Within |
| Under the skin |
| Just give it one thought |
| Come here and I will whisper true |
| About the things I know of you |
| And you will recognize them |
| Always… |
| As near to you as breath and bone |
| So dear to me, and yours alone |
| And I will love you for them |
| Always… |
| What’s that they told you |
| About a book &a cover? |
| Is it too much to remember? |
| Cause you, you’re one thing and then another… |
