Like a book

I see you look in my direction
I repay the compliment
Something different in your eyes
You always seem so confident back then

Though there's been a lot of change
It seems the best things stay the same
I remember you, my friend
Before you changed and went away from me

(Believe me)

Believe me
If I could, baby, I would
You know it was all good
If I could
Maybe I'd give you my world
You know me
You read me like a book

I offer you the reassurance
Though it seems irrelevant
Can you see the darkening circles
Around my eyes penetrating your soul
Let's take it back to better days
When everything was possible
All this dirty water weighs
My heavy heart is longing for you

(Believe me)

Believe me
If I could, baby, I would
You know it was all good
If I could
Maybe I'd give you my world
You know me
You read me like a book
