Nick Lowe - When I Write The Book Lyrics
when i write the book (nick lowe/dave edmunds/billy bremner)now i can remember like it was only yesterdaylove was young and foolish like a little child at playbut oh how lovers change - i never dreamed how easilycause now im just a shadow of the boy i used to be and when i write the book about my love it will be about a man whos torn in half about his hopes and ambitions wasted through the years the pain will be written on every page in tears when i write the book about my lovei was a fool to myself when i kept on runnin aroundand i fared little better when i tried settlin downmaybe some magic moment - ive never known one, not for longfor all too soon the magic is in a moment gone 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 lovewhen i was young love was fun and i was so happy - i looked so good and i dressed so snappytwo-tone shoes on my feet big old smile on my face - as i moved and grooved all over the placenow im down in the heels my complexion is badcause my love life is sadder than sad 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
