Read the Blessed Pages Lyrics

Actually, "chapter" totally makes sense, as it goes along with the "love is like a novel" metaphor. So he's saying that the women he has loved in the past have a chapter in his life (or their relationship is a chapter in his life).

This verse is the most beautiful and romantic verse that I think Stuart has ever written:

ever will I love you
you were good to me

My eyes water up every time I hear him sing that.
