Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Well, you say that I treat you like a book on a shelf
I don't take you out that often
'Cause I know that I completed you
And that's why you are here
That's the reason you stay here
How awful that must feel

You said you'd be my dream
I could have you every night
And if by morning I'd forgotten you
Well, no big deal, that'd be all right
'Cause you're the re-occuring kind
You are the re-occuring kind
You never really leave my mind

Are you the love of my lifetime
'Cause there's been times I've had my doubts
We were just kids when I first kissed you
In the attic of my parents' house
And I wish we were there now
I took so long to figure out
What this book has been about

Now I write when I'm away
Letters that you'll never read
You said go explore those other women
The geography of their bodies
But there's just one map you'll need
You're a boomerang you'll see
You will return to me

You will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will. (etc.)

Because if you don't then this book's all lies
If you don't then my plans would all be ruined
If you don't, I'll start drinking like the way I drank before
And I just won't have a future anymore
Well, you say that I treat you like a book on a shelf   I don't take you out that often   'Cause I know that I completed you   And that's why you are here   That's the reason you stay here   How awful that must feel      You said you'd be my dream   I could have you every night   And if by morning I'd forgotten you   Well, no big deal, that'd be all right   'Cause you're the re-occuring kind   You are the re-occuring kind   You never really leave my mind      Are you the love of my lifetime   'Cause there's been times I've had my doubts   We were just kids when I first kissed you   In the attic of my parents' house   And I wish we were there now   I took so long to figure out   What this book has been about      Now I write when I'm away   Letters that you'll never read   You said go explore those other women   The geography of their bodies   But there's just one map you'll need   You're a boomerang you'll see   You will return to me      You will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will. (etc.)      Because if you don't then this book's all lies   If you don't then my plans would all be ruined   If you don't, I'll start drinking like the way I drank before   And I just won't have a future anymore
