Prince – Open Book lyrics
You said my heart's just like an open book
But there are lines U've never seen
You said that you could tell in a single look
But you never looked in between
Sometimes I wanted 2 keep you, sometimes I wanted your love
But I've awakened 2 the reality that sometimes is not enough
Oh, our separate dreams pulled us our separate ways
We were so different from the very start
2 me it was 4ever, 2 you it was just a phase
I'll give back your name if you give back my heart

Chorus:
You said U'd take me 2 another world
I said you were only posing
U'd never be able 2 read this girl
So the open book is closing, closing, closing
Closing

Sometimes it felt so natural, sometimes it felt so right
It doesn't seem fair that you and I ever had a fight... No!
Sometimes I wanted 2 keep you, sometimes I wanted your love
But I've awakened 2 the reality that sometimes is not enough
Oh, now your touch is a reminder like the thorns upon a rose
The beauty is mine if I can stand the cut

Chorus {x2
