My Favourite Book (Flack)

I was always late
You never afraid
That we could be fallin'
All our friends would say
That maybe we should wait
But they can't see what's comin'

And to this day
When everything breaks
You are the anchor that holds me

And that is why we'll always make it
How I know your face
All the ways you move
You come in, I can read you
You're my favourite book
All the things you say
The way you shift your eyes
I never knew there was someone
To make me come alive

When the days are long
And the thunder with the storm
Can always get me cryin'
But you can make my bed
I'll fall into it
Shattered but not lonely

Cause I never knew a home
Until I found your hands
And when I'm withered
You come to me, you're my best friend

And that is why we'll always make it
How I know your face
All the ways you move
You come in, I can read you
You're my favourite book
All the things you say
The way you shift your eyes
I never knew there was someone
To make me come alive

And when we're making love
I give everything up for your touch

How I know your face
All the ways you move
You come in
I can read you, you're my favourite book
All the things you say
The way you shift your eyes
I never knew there was someone
To make me come alive

And when you go to work
All the day I wait
For you to come home
Makin' our time
In our little place
Our little place
Our little place…
