Learn You Like a Book
Tell me where you moved to long ago, after Omaha
I know you've probably told me once before, I guess I forgot
Let me see the words form in your mind, I won't make a sound
I just want to watch them where they fall, I want to take another look
I want to learn you like a book
Tell me about the places where you lived, and the friends you made
And how'd you get that scar above your eye, in the second grade
And when you look into the mirror now, can you find the words
I don't mind the silence in between, it's understood
I want to learn you like a book
Turn the page, we both have the time, I'll read every line
I can only tell what's on your mind if you talk to me
I only want to get as close to you as you'll let me be
And we're not trying to build the pyramids, it's not surgery
We're the only ones who'll ever know, all the time it took
I want to learn you like a book
I want to learn you like a book
I want to learn you like a book
