My Little Brown Book Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My little brown book
With the silver binding
How it keeps reminding me
Of a memory
That's haunting me

[Verse 2]
In some quiet nook
I go through its pages
And peruse this ageless tale
Of a love that failed
To ever become true

[Bridge]
On this page is the date
Of that fateful night at eight
When I found we were no longer in love
After that there's nothing more
Just a closed and futile door
That shuts out the stars above

[Verse 3]
In my little book
I inscribed your heart vow
But since we're apart now, this
And that last sweet kiss
Is all I've left of you
Is all I've left of you

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Is all I've left of you
