The Book

I read your book
And I find it strange
That I know that girl and I know her world
A little too well
And I didn't know
By giving my hand
That I would be written down, sliced around
Passed down among strangers' hands.

Three days in Rome
Where do we go
I'll always remember
Three days in Rome.

Never again
Would I see your face
You carry a pen and a paper
And no time and no words you waste
Oh, you're a voyeur
The worst kind of thief
To take what happened to us
To write down everything
That went on between you and me.

Three days in Rome
And I stand alone
I'll always remember
Three days in Rome.

And what do I get
Do I get revenge?
While you lay it all out
Without any doubt
Of how this would end
Sometimes it goes
And sometimes we come
To learn by mistake
That the love you once made
Can't be undone.

Three days in Rome
I laid my heart out
I laid my soul down alone
I'll always remember
Three days in Rome.
