I Could Write a Book

Lyrics

[Intro] (Write, I could write, I could write a book) (Write, I could write, I could write a book) [Verse 1] You were there, I swear, in my dreams last night There were lies in your eyes but I held you tight Oh I, oh, I could write a book about broken dreams I was so impressed by your long, white dress By your laugh, and your squeeze, and your shaky knees Oh I, oh I could write a book about busted dreams [Chorus] (I could write, I could write, I could write a book) (I could write, I could write, I could write a book) Write a book of guilt, and fear, and blame A catalog of pain (I could write, I could write, I could write a book) On disappointment (I could write, I could write, I could write a book) On broken promises (Write) You don't have a prayer But sure, I've been there [Verse 2] If your heart's thrown apart, just let them know If you're battered and bruised, just let them go Oh I, oh I could write a book about love and hate Tears for your reels will soon destroy ya It's clear that your fear isn't paranoia Oh I, oh I could write a book of shattered faith [Chorus] (I could write, I could write, I could write a book) (I could write, I could write, I could write a book) Write a book of guilt, and fear, and blame A catalog of pain (I could write, I could write, I could write a book) On disappointment (I could write, I could write, I could write a book) On broken promises (Write) You don't have a prayer But sure, I've been there (Write, I could write, I could write a book) (Write, I could write, I could write) [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Just don't think you put one over on me It won't be easy, after all I've seen Yeah [Chorus] (I could write, I could write, I could write a book) On disappointment (I could write, I could write, I could write a book) Write a book of guilt, and fear, and blame A catalog of pain (I could write, I could write, I could write a book) On disappointment (I could write, I could write, I could write a book) On broken promises (Ah) You don't have a prayer But sure, I've been there (I could write, I could write, I could write a book) (Write, I could write, I could write a book)
