Book Of Brilliant Things - Simple Minds

Thank you for the voice, the eyes and the memories shine

Thank you for the pictures of living in the beautiful black and the white

Some say we’ll be together for a very long time

Some say that our first impressions never will lie

I open up to take a look into the bright and shiny book

Into the open scheme of things

Book of brilliant things

Book of brilliant things

I open up to take a look into the bright and shiny book;

Into the open scheme of things

Book of brilliant things

Oh, book of brilliant things

I thank you for the shadows

It takes two or three to make company

I thank you for the lightning that shoots up and sparkles in the rain

Some say this could be the great divide

Some day some of them say that our hearts will beat

Like the wheels of the fast train, all around the world

I open up to take a look into the bright and shiny book

Into the open scheme of things

Book of brilliant things

Book of brilliant things

Some say we can be together for a very long time

Some say our hearts will beat like the wheels of a fast train

All around the world

All around the world

All around the world

Some say our hearts beat like the wheels of a fast train

All around the world

All around, all around, around, around

All around the world

Our hearts beat like the wheels of a fast train

A very long time

All around and all around and all around and all around the world

Some say we’ll be together

Some say

A very long time, some of them will say

A very long time all around the world
