(Verse I)
The book that lies beside my bed
Recalls all that’s inside my head
Down that road, once again
The pages hold a life untold
A side of me that no one knows
Down that road, I can’t pretend
(Pre-Chorus)
We all hide secrets of our own
Inside of us, in depths unknown
And so the story goes
(Chorus)
Now the pages have turned with the tide
While looking back has slowly reminded
Me, of who I used to be
As I travel down memory lane
I see my youth now slippin’ away
As I get old, the story unfolds
The book tells a tale all my own
(Verse II)
As the paper is stained, torn apart
Worn like my skin, faded as my heart
It hurts sometimes to know that I
See those times through younger eyes
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
As the sun shines through the windowpane
Warm on my face like back in those days
When the air was pure and my heart was too
My mind was clear and the book was new
(Chorus)
