Favorite Book Of Poetry Lyrics - O.a.r. (of A Revolution)

called her last night 

and i read her a line from my favorite book of poetry 

and i, i started to cry 

she asked me what was wrong 

don't worry, it's not you, it's me 

i never knew 

half the stories told to me 

stories like the sun is blue 

and i, i never knew 

half the time i spent with her 

i wish to god i spent it all with you 

she called me last night 

she read me a line from her favorite book of poetry 

and i, she started to cry 

i said what's wrong with you 

she said don't worry, it's not you, it's me 

well it's plain to see 

every time you look at me 

you wish to god it was her with you 

well i never knew 

all the time you look at me 

i wish to god i gave her away from you 

see my baby now 

all the poetry is written about you somehow 

and every time i read the little line of poetry 

i just think about just you and me 

she called me last night 

and we talked for what seemed like the very first time 

and we, we began to see 

life is too short to run away from everything, she reads 

i don't know what you've done to me 

i don't care anymore, can't you see 

i just want love, just want love 

it's not hard, just let me know 

because every time i read a line from the book 

i realize the poetry, that poetry was written bout you and me 

all this poetry is written bout just you and me
