My little brown book

With the silver binding

How it keeps reminding me

Of a memory

That's haunting me

In some quiet nook

I go thru its pages

And peruse this ageless tale

Of a love that failed

To ever become true

On this page is the date

Of that fateful night at eight

When I found you were no longer in love

After that there's nothing more

Just a dark and futile door

That shuts out the stars above

In my little book

I inscribed your heart vow

But since we're apart now

This and that last sweet kiss

Is all that's left of you

Is all that's left of you

Is all that's left of you
