Life Like You Read It In a Book

Well I see the light in the reflection in your eye 

Yet I see no gleam about me at all 

I would have opened all of your windows that night 

Had I known you were just trying to let it go 

Did you hold to your ordinary idea like you read it in a book 

You were on like the lines all tried to blur 

And you saw it turn for worse 

Did you open your ordinary life up like you read it in a book 

You were on like the lines all tried to blur and you saw it turn for worse 

When you heard, 

Ya, you know it hurt 

Well I hope by the time I can come and save her life 

She aint died out here all alone 

Hell, I know she tries 

But she’s afraid that we just might 

Drive so far we never make it home 

Did you hold to your ordinary idea like you read it in a book 

You were on like the lines all tried to blur 

And you saw it turn for worse 

Did you open your ordinary life up like you read it in a book 

You were on like the lines all tried to blur 

And you saw it turn for worse 

And you learned 

Ya, you know it hurt 

But you learned
