Bookends Songtext
von Mark Lindsay

Two people just collecting dust
Upon a shelf and yet
There′s so much left to give
Within our hearts
There's still a lot between us
Though time has seen us
Drift apart

We′re just like bookends
Though we look in opposite directions
Love and affection is all we need
Two lonely bookends
Back to back our life is wasted
It's time we faced it sensibly


So many words that we have heard
Were said in haste
And now they fill the space between
You and me
Let's go back through the pages
Back to the way it used to be

We′re just like bookends
Though we look in opposite directions
Love and affection is all we need
Two lonely bookends
Back to back our life is wasted
It′s time we faced it sensibly

We're just like bookends
Though we look in opposite directions
Love and affection is all we need
