The Book of Love

The book of love
by
Jude Kyrie


The book of love is singing
all of loves sweet songs
it's pages turn so sweetly
the stories old and long

I watch you by the firelight
reading that book again
lighting up the dark night
reading to me loves flame.

I love it when you read to me
of loves of long ago
with words that fall as softly
as the gentle falling snow.

the music in the book
sings songs of loves refrain
I hear your sweet voice singing
oh sing to me again

never lose that book of love
your stories never grow old
I love it when you read to me
more than riches wealth or gold
