Nick Lowe - When I Write The Book lyrics
Your rating:
When i write the book (nick lowe/dave edmunds/billy bremner) Now i can remember like it was only yesterday Love was young and foolish like a little child at play But oh how lovers change - i never dreamed how easily Cause now im just a shadow of the boy i used to be And when i write the book about my love It will be about a man whos torn in half About his hopes and ambitions wasted through the years The pain will be written on every page in tears When i write the book about my love I was a fool to myself when i kept on runnin around And i fared little better when i tried settlin down Maybe some magic moment - ive never known one, not for long For all too soon the magic is in a moment gone And when i write the book about my love Itll be a heartbreaking story about love and luck When i get down on the pages all i felt It will make the hardest-hearted of critics hearts melt When i write the book about my love When i was young love was fun and i was so happy - i looked so good and i dressed so snappy Two-tone shoes on my feet big old smile on my face - as i moved and grooved all over the place Now im down in the heels my complexion is bad Cause my love life is sadder than sad And when i write the book about my love Itll be a pop publication, tougher than tough When i get down on the pages all i missed It will shoot to the top of the best-sellers list When i write the book about my love
