When I Write The Book Lyrics

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 Nick Lowe - When I Write The Book - http://motolyrics.com/nick-lowe/when-i-write-the-book-lyrics.html

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
