lirik lagu suzanne vega - book & a cover
music & lyrics by suzanne vega
what’s that they told you
about a book & a cover?
don’t judge so quickly,
is it too much too remember?
’cause pictures lie,
you know.
i’ll show
it’s so.
just give it one thought.
what’s that they taught you?
to revere a kind of beauty?
to paint on that pretty veneer
and try to hide whatever’s dirty?
well, faces lie.
you’ll see
no sympathy.
just give it one thought.
come here and i will whisper true
about the things i know of you,
and you will recognize them,
always…
as near to you as breath and bone,
so dear to me, and yours alone,
and i will love you for them,
always…
what’s that they tell you
about a book & a cover?
don’t judge so quickly.
they’ll tell you one thing and then another.
but see what lies
within,
under the skin.
just give it one thought.
