Read It in Books - Echo & the Bunnymen

You said you couldn’t find anyone

To love you

I said there’s more to life than a broken heart

Did it console you?

I’ve seen in your eyes

I’ve read it in books

Who wants love

Without the looks

You know the words

Please do say it from your knees

Show some respect

Hey baby, genuflect

Once I like crying

Twice I like laughter

Come on tell me what I’m after

I said you’ve gotta stop chasing rainbows

You said I’m just staying up And anyway

I like it when the rain goes

I’ve seen in your eyes

I’ve read it in books

Who want’s love

Without the looks

Once I like crying

Twice I like laughter

Come on tell me what I’m after

There’s not that much to us

I hide the little with a lot

You still expect a lovely fuss

After showing all you’ve got

I’ve seen in your eyes

I’ve read it in books

Who wants love

Without the looks

That’s all
