Open Book lyrics

I feel just like an open book,

Exposing myself in this neighborhood

Talking to people as if I'd knew them well

Thinking that everyone has come through different kinds of hell

Lately I've found myself in doubt

Asking myself what it's all about

What am I doing here, what's this leading to?

What's the point of it all, without you?

Well, I've got promises to keep

Like a cat I know I'll land upon my feet

Each time I fall

Every now and then in dreams

By the river 'neath our tree

Leaves in yellow, red and brown

I hear you whisper in my ear

Your love belongs to everyone

I feel just like an open book

A couple of words was all it took

In front of a bright white canvas

Staring vacantly now free, against my will

A drifting vessel in the storm

Pushed around from shore to shore

I know there's so much left to see

I know I have so much left to give

But the memories remain

Yet the scars don't feel the same

Filling pages one by one

In the warmth of other suns
