And Awhen I write the book C#7about my love
It willF#m be about a man whos Dtorn in half
About his Ahopes and ambitions C#7wasted through the years
The F#mpain will be written on every Dpage in tears
When I Awrite, when I write the Dbook
when I write the Abook about
When I write the Dbook about my Elove
Verse
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
Chorus
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
Break: E F F#m G G E
Verse
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
Chorus
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
