Well, you say that I treat you like a book on a shelf I don't take you out that often 'Cause I know that I completed you And that's why you are here That's the reason you stay here How awful that must feel
You said you'd be my dream I could have you every night And if by morning I'd forgotten you Well, no big deal, that'd be all right 'Cause you're the re-occuring kind You are the re-occuring kind You never really leave my mind
Are you the love of my lifetime 'Cause there's been times I've had my doubts We were just kids when I first kissed you In the attic of my parents' house And I wish we were there now I took so long to figure out What this book has been about
Now I write when I'm away Letters that you'll never read You said go explore those other women The geography of their bodies But there's just one map you'll need You're a boomerang you'll see You will return to me
You will. You? Will. You? Will. You? Will. (etc.)
Because if you don't then this book's all lies If you don't then my plans would all be ruined If you don't, I'll start drinking like the way I drank before And I just won't have a future anymore
