Lyrics
Close as pages in a book
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We'll be close as pages in a book
My love and I
So close we can share a single love
Share every sigh
So close that before I hear your laugh
My laugh breaks through
And when a tear starts to appear
My eyes grow misty too
Our dreams won't go tumbling to the ground
We'll hold them fast
Darling as the strongest book is bound
We're bound to last
Your life is my life
And while that beats away in my heart
We'll be close as pages in a book
Never to part
We'll be close as pages in a book
Never to part
