[00:51.0] | Let me watch by the fire and remember my days |
[00:55.770] | And it may be a trick of the firelight |
[01:01.60] | But the flickering pages that trouble my sight |
[01:06.90] | Is a book I'm afraid to write |
[01:09.690] | |
[01:10.970] | It's the book of my days, it's the book of my life |
[01:15.539] | And it's cut like a fruit on the blade of a knife |
[01:20.230] | And it's all there to see as the section reveals |
[01:25.130] | There's some sorrow in every life |
[01:29.320] | |
[01:30.520] | If it reads like a puzzle, a wandering maze |
[01:34.830] | Then I won't understand ‘til the end of my days |
[01:39.620] | I'm still forced to remember, |
[01:43.20] | Remember the words of my life |
[01:46.670] | |
[01:54.720] | There are promises broken and promises kept |
[01:59.289] | Angry words that were spoken, when I should have wept |
[02:04.190] | There's a chapter of secrets, and words to confess |
[02:09.190] | If I lose everything that I possess |
[02:14.710] | There's a chapter on loss and a ghost who won't die |
[02:18.870] | There's a chapter on love where the ink's never dry |
[02:23.740] | There are sentences served in a prison I built out of lies. |
[02:31.180] | |
[02:35.600] | Though the pages are numbered |
[02:41.690] | I can't see where they lead |
[02:46.270] | For the end is a mystery no-one can read |
[02:52.420] | In the book of my life |
[02:55.620] | |
[03:06.210] | There's a chapter on fathers a chapter on sons |
[03:10.320] | There are pages of conflicts that nobody won |
[03:15.190] | And the battles you lost and your bitter defeat, |
[03:20.210] | There's a page where we fail to meet |
[03:24.360] | |
[03:25.579] | There are tales of good fortune that couldn't be planned |
[03:30.40] | There's a chapter on god that I don't understand |
[03:35.110] | There's a promise of Heaven and Hell but I'm damned if I see |
[03:41.870] | |
[03:47.960] | Though the pages are numbered |
[03:52.190] | I can't see where they lead |
[03:56.860] | For the end is a mystery no-one can read |
[04:04.130] | In the book of my life |
[04:07.390] | |
[04:24.870] | Now the daylight's returning |
[04:28.850] | And if one sentence is true |
[04:33.909] | All these pages are burning |
[04:38.590] | And all that's left is you |
[04:53.909] | |
[05:06.460] | Though the pages are numbered |
[05:10.650] | I can't see where they lead |
[05:15.450] | For the end is a mystery no-one can read |
[05:22.160] | In the book of my life |
