A Brand New Book

歌曲歌詞

I once read the story of somebody's life I had a few moments to spare

He was a good man who lived with his wife

With the usual kids in his hair

There was happiness a lot of weirdness and a sprinkle of tragedy

I pulled it by chance from a second hand bin

But it could've been written just for me

Because the words came out not twist and shout

Cause that's not what a grown man writes about

That chapter's over let it blow over

I found that I've become the owner of a brand new book

A brand new book

I've travelled far and I've travelled wide

And I guess I'll be travelling on

Fill another suitcase up with possessions

And put on a badfinger song

I've got much more than most people have

And a little less than a few

But you can't measure these things by weight

They either drag you down or they lift you

Because the words came out not twist and shout

Cause that's not what a grown man writes about

That chapter's over let it blow over

I found that I've become the owner of a brand new book

I don't read between the lines

I'm not ready for what I'll find
