The Book of Love

Writer's picture: DougDoug

Updated: Oct 7, 2020

Another one of ‘our’ tunes. It’s a simple yet beautiful song that says so much in so little words. That’s what love is I guess!

The book of love is long and boring

No one can lift the damn thing

It's full of charts and facts and figures

And instructions for dancing


But I

I love it when you read to me

And you

You can read me anything


The book of love has music in it

In fact that's where music comes from

Some of it is just transcendental

Some of it is just really dumb


But I

I love it when you sing to me

And you

You can sing me anything


The book of love is long and boring

And written very long ago

It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes

And things we're all too young to know


But I

I love it when you give me things

And you

You ought to give me wedding rings


And I

I love it when you give me things

And you

You ought to give me wedding rings

You ought to give me wedding rings
