Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A quiet place to sit
A little light to see
Some time to read
Is really all I need
[Verse 2]
You're unputdownable
A story so confounding
The pages turn so easily
[Verse 3]
You are my favorite book
And I like to spend my time
I'm fully occupied
Reading between the lines
[Verse 4]
You're unputdownable
A plot that's so unpredictable
That I read on complacently
[Verse 5]
Well, I'm left in confusion
By your epilogue
Where is the conclusion
A narrative arc
[Verse 6]
Well, it's just been enthralling
The disbelieve suspended
On top standing still
[Verse 7]
No myth or fairy tale
Will ever be quite the same
No moral to the story
You only go down in a blaze of glory
[Verse 8]
You're unputdownable
A fable so fantastical
I've learned to read voraciously
[Verse 9]
And when at last I come to the end
I turn back to page one and again
Pour over every word
Beautiful and absurd
[Verse 10]
You're unputdownable
A story so astounding
Could only be the truth, you see
[Verse 11]
Well, I don't like intrusions
And if I had my way
I'd close the door behind me
And they'd all melt away
[Verse 12]
I'd open up the book and
Climb right out of this town
If you'd let me
If you'd be so kind
If you'd allow me
To read your mind
[Verse 13]
If you'd let me
If you'd be so kind
If you'd allow me
To read your mind
[Verse 14]
To read your mind
To read your mind
To read your mind
To read your mind
To read your mind
To read your mind
