Books

The books are all out of the shelf now
Words all over the floor
I don't know why I don't know how
The books are all out of the shelf now
Trying to find out what went wrong
I don't know why I don't know how
Lying in my own tears, in a Blue Hotel
Dealing with my fears just to find myself
Oh no
Oh no
Dealing with my fears just to find myself
The books are all out of the shelf now
Feelings you just can't ignore
I don't know why I don't know how
The books are all out of the shelf now
It's easier to close the door
I don't know why I don't know how
Driving a hundred miles just to find you well
Healing my old scars under your love spell
That's home, Sweet home
That's love, Sweet love
Drinking a hundred smiles justifyin myself... Oh no
The books are all out of the shelf now
Words all over the floor
I don't know why I don't know how
