lirik lagu josephine vander gucht - literature lovers
all of the books
on my shelf are unread
i keep them there
so that they will impress
when you come to stay
you’ll be swept away
as you thumb through the spines
i’m sure that you’ll be mine
when your eyes rest upon
miranda dulisle
she’s a fiery way with words
or so you have heard
from your friends
and, what will you do
with those hopeless two
both pretending to be literature lovers instead
la da da

la da da da da da da

la da da da
they can print a thousand pages
all the paper filled with words
and a mult-tude of metaphors
that i have never heard
makes no difference to me
in the end, well, i’ll say “i’ve read it all”
but as the weight of these words
start to settle in my mind
i’ll never wait for a person
to genuinely find
something deep inside myself
something more than just the books on my shelf
and, what will you do
with those hopeless two
both pretending to be literature lovers instead
all of the books
on my shelf are unread
i keep them there
so that they will impress
when you come to stay
you’ll be swept away
and me, i am just like
the books on my shelf
you have never read my cover
i have never read myself
there are words to be saved, and
words to be erased
and, what will you do
with those hopeless two
both pretending to be literature lovers instead
both pretending to be literature lovers instead
all of the books
