When I Write The Book

Well I can remember
 Like it was only yesterday
 Love was young and foolish
 Like a little child at play
 But oh how love has changed
 I never knew how easily
 Now i'm just a shadow
 Of the boy I used to be
 Yeah yeah
 And when I write the book
 About my love
 It will be about a man
 Who was torn in half
 By his hope and ambition
 Wasted through the years
 The man will be written
 On every page in tears
 When I write, When I write the book
 When I write the book about my love
 When I write the book about my love
 I was a fool to my self
 When I kept on running around
 I've been a little better
 Oh when I tried settling down
 Maybe some magic moment
 You never know but not for long
 But all too soon the magic
 Was in a moment gone
 And when I write the book
 About my love
 It will be a heart breaking story
 About love and luck
 And when I get down on the pages
 All I have felt
 It will make the hardest heart of the critics heart melt
 When I write, When I write the book
 When I write the book about my love
 When I write the book about my love
 When I was young love was fun
 I was so happy
 I looked so good
 And I dressed so happy
 Two tone shoes on my feet
 Big old smile on my face
 As I moved, moved, groved
 All over the place
 Now i'm down on my luck
 And my complexion is bad
 Because my love love life
 Is sadder than sad
 And when I write the book
 About my love
 It will be a hard publication
 Tougher than tough
 When I get down on the pages
 All I've amassed
 It will shoot to the top
 Of the bestsellers list
 When I write, When I write the book
 When I write the book about my love
 When I write the book about my love
 When I write the book
 When I write the book about my love
 When I write the book about my love
