The Book Songtext
von Smokie

I never knew where it all went wrong
Looking back, it always seemed so strong
Nothing ventured, there was nothing gained
I write a book but remain unnamed
Fiction causes such a mighty pain
It′s hard to write when you're under strain
Why it happens, only Heaven knows
Read my book on how the story goes

There′s a love in the middle of this open book
Love in the middle if you take another look
So much to say through the pages
Read on, you will read for ages

Don't judge the book by the cover
One glance, then you're looking through another
First edition, hot off the press
I′ll write this book that ends with happiness


There′s a love in the middle of this open book
Love in the middle if you take another look
So much to say through the pages
Read on, you will read for ages

Read by many, rave reviews
Story's good, yes it′s headline news
A best-seller straight from the heart
Cover to cover, from the end to the start

There's a love in the middle of this open book
Love in the middle if you take another look
So much to say through the pages
Read on, you will read for ages

Hang on to every word that I write for you
This is something inside of me
Word for word, it′s all about you

There's a love in the middle of this open book
Love in the middle if you take another look
So much to say through the pages
Read on, you will read for ages
