Book of Love Lyrics

Dar Williams Book of Love Lyrics

INTRO: Dm
Tell me what you see, is it close to what you dreamed?
If I play a part can I be redeemed?
We pore through the passages from leather volumed shelves
But they only leave us wondering, can we find ourselves
In the book of love?
Oh, ooh, oh, ooh, oh
In the book of love?
Looking for the one, waiting on a day
Countless dinner parties, all the games we play
All for some processional, a solemn wedding vow
A picture in a picture frame that Beauty can allow
In the book of love?
Oh, ooh, oh, ooh, oh
In the book of love?
INSTRUMENTAL: F Am C G (3x)
BRIDGE:
And love becomes a temple and we begin to fear
That an unfeeling oracle will say, ?You did come near,
But you are not welcome here.?
N.C. Dm C G
This is who I am, all the places that I've been
The fondness and regret, every love that I've been in
And I've played all the characters, the fool, the friend, the wife
And no matter what the ending is, the story of my life
OUTRO: (## repeat and fade to end ##)
Is the book of love
Oh, ooh, oh, ooh, oh
Is the book of love
Oh, ooh, oh, ooh, oh
Is the book of love
