The Book I Write Lyrics

*One, Two*

Oh I wanna open this hour
And what's our match to play?
But both of us
Stay on the guard in the same way

And you know, it's just the book I like

All that we knew,
Just a clue
All that we was,
Just because
I've never loved
Now I wanna trigger your heart *hah*
There's something else
besides a silvery part
Hey, hey

And that's the book I write
I let it go so long
And now the book I write, oh

*This is it*

I'm gone

All that we are
All we do
All that we are, all we do
Is here forever
All that we was,
Just because
All that we knew,
Just a clue

I've never loved

This is the book I write,
Oh why'd I let it go so long?

This song was written specifically for the movie "STRANGER THAN FICTION" If you see the movie the lyrics make a little more sense. Okay, here is my rendition. ..........................................................................

So many people hear so many different things when they hear this song.

To me it sounds both forlorn and brimming with passion.

Love, love, love: All that we are, all we do Is here forever.

Short and sweet. It follows the dynamic of the film, that is, the duality of the author and the permanence of her words, projected on to her living character Harold Crick.
