| Now 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 dreamed how easily | |
| For now I'm just a shadow of the boy I used to be | |
| Oh yeah | |
| And when I write the book about my love | |
| It will be about a man who's torn in half | |
| About his hope and ambition wasted through the years | |
| The pain will be written on every page in tears | |
| Oh when I write the book about my love | |
| I was a fool to myself when I kept on runnin' around | |
| And I fared little better when I tried settlin' down | |
| Maybe some magic moments have I known but not for long | |
| For all too soon the magic was in a moment gone | |
| And when I write the book about my love | |
| It'll be a heartbreaking story of bad luck in love | |
| When I get down on the pages all I felt | |
| It will make the hardest-hearted of critics' heart melt | |
| When I write the book about my love | |
| When I was young love was fun and I was so happy | |
| I looked so good, and I dressed so snappy | |
| Two-tone shoes on my feet, big old smile on my face | |
| As I moved and grooved all over the place | |
| Now I'm down at heel, my complexion is bad | |
| 'Cause my love life is sadder than sad | |
| And when I write the book about my love | |
| It'll be a pop publication, tougher than tough | |
| When I get down on the pages all I missed | |
| It will shoot to the top of the best-sellers list | |
