Like a Book Lyrics

I see you looking my direction
I repayed a compliment
Something different in your eyes
You always seemed so confident back then
Though there's been a lot of change
Seems the best things stayed the same
I remember you were my friend before you changed
and ran away from me

(Believe me)

Believe me
If I could
Baby, I would
You know it
Was all gone
If I could
Maybe now
Give you my word
You know me
You read me like a book
I offer you the reassurance
Though it seems irrelevant
Can you see the darkened circles 'round my eyes
Penetrate in your soul?

Let's take back to better days
When everything was possible
Oh, this dirty world always...
My heavy heart is longing for you
(Believe me)

Believe me
If I could
Baby, I would
You know it
Was all gone
If I could
Maybe now
Give you my word
You know me
You read me like a book
