All Writ Down Songtext
von The Incredible String Band

I fully understood
That you′d leave when your ship come by
And I fully understood
You had a purpose more high
Than to give a little schoolboy
To give a little schoolboy
His first love

But oh, did I cry
And did I cry
For I thought that those days
Would just fade and die
But every cell in my body has it all written down
Every smile and every frown
And all those good time girls
All those good time girls

That book it sometimes makes me glad
That book it sometimes makes me sad
But oh, it don't read back
Oh, it don′t read back


I cursed you to your face
When you turned to go
But I see now that you did just right
I bow to you low
For you gave a little schoolboy
You gave a little schoolboy
His first love

But oh, did I cry
And did I cry
For I thought that those days
Would just fade and die
But every cell in my body has it all written down
Every smile and every frown
And all those good time girls
All those good time girls

That book it sometimes makes me glad
That book it sometimes makes me sad
But oh, it don't read back
Oh, it don't read back
And oh, it don′t read back
