Lyrics to Unputdownable

A quiet place to sit

A little light to see

Some time to read

Is really all I need



You're unputdownable

A story so confounding

The pages turn so easily



You are my favourite book

And I like to spend my time

I'm fully occupied

Reading between the lines

You're unputdownable

A plot that's so unpredictable

That I read on complacently



Well I'm left in confusion

By your epilogue

Where is the conclusion

A narrative arc

Well it's just been enthralling

The disbelief suspended

On top, standing still



No myth or fairy tale

Will ever be quite the same

No moral to the story

You only go down in a blaze of glory

You're unputdownable

A fable so fantastical

I've learned to read voraciously



And when at last I come to the end

I turn back to page one and again

Pore over every word

Beautiful and absurd



You're unputdownable

A story so astounding

Could only be the truth you see



Well I don't like intrusions

And if I had my way

I'd close the door behind me

And they'd all melt away

I'd open up the book and

Climb right out of the town

If you'd let me

If you'd be so kind

If you'd allow me

To read your mind



If you'd let me

If you'd be so kind

If you'd allow me

To read your mind

To read your mind

To read your mind

To read your mind

To read your mind

To read your mind

To read your mind
