Read the Blessed Pages

[Verse 1] Love and pain and sorrow Keep the band together She was like my soulmate Whispered in my ear Love was playing music It was all we wanted Making plastic records Of our history [Verse 2] How I knew it mattered To a certain person Heard the boy in London Called out from the crowd Said something that echoes To me ten years later Wishing that he still called Like he called that night [Verse 3] Pulling songs from thin air Pulling songs from bridges Smell the air in small towns Where the train line stops Ever will I love you Now your chapter's over Ever will I love you You were good to me [Verse 4] Now a pain in memory Is a cherished story Moan about the present Venerate the past Love is like a novel Read the blessed pages Did I do my best dear? That is all you ask
