The book of love is long and boring

No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures

and instructions for dancing
but I, I love it when you read to me

and you, you can read me anything
The book of love has music in it

In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it is just transcendental

Some of it is just really dumb

but I, I love it when you sing to me

and you, you can sing me anything
The book of love is long and boring

and written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes

and things we're all too young to know

but I, I love it when you give me things

and you, you ought to give me wedding rings

I, I love it when you give me things
and you, you ought to give me wedding rings
