THE BOOK - THE BOOK

James Michael Taylor

I read a book a long long time ago
Why it frightened me, I didn’t know
But there it was. There I was
How did I know?

A simple story. A man and his lover.
Made me quiver. Run for cover.
Beautiful lady in my future…Woooo

I read a book. I can’t go back. But there it was.
There I was. How did it know?

Beautiful lady down by the river. Made me quiver.
Try to forgive her.
She was the lady that stole my future…Wooo

I read a book. Why it frightened me I didn’t know.
But there it was. There I was.
How did I know? What did I know?
Now I just sit here and stare at the river
Shake and shiver forever without her
She was a taker. She was a giver…Woooo
