The Book - Smokie

I never knew where it all went wrong

Looking back it always seems so strong

Nothing venture, there was nothing gain

I write a book but remain the name

Fiction causes such a mighty pain

Start to write when you’re on the strain

Why it happens only heaven knows

Read my book on how the story goes

There’s a love in the middle of this open book

Love in the middle if you take another look

So much to say through the pages

Read on, you will read for ages

Not just the book about the cover

One glance then you’re looking through another

First edition hard of the press

Write this book it ends with happiness

There’s a love in the middle of this open book

Love in the middle if you take another look

So much to say through the pages

Read on, you will read for ages

Read by many, ready for use

Story is good, guess it’s headline news

The best seller, straight from the heart

Cover the cover from the end to the start

There’s a love in the middle of this open book

Love in the middle if you take another look

So much to say through the pages

Read on, you will read for ages

Hang on to every word

That I write for you

This is something inside of me

Word for word it’s all about you

There’s a love in the middle of this open book

Love in the middle if you take another look

So much to say through the pages

Read on, you will read for ages
