Let me watch by the fire and remember my days[00:00:51]
And it may be a trick of the firelight[00:00:56]
But the flickering pages that trouble my sight[00:01:01]
Is a book I'm afraid to write[00:01:06]
It's the book of my days it's the book of my life[00:01:11]
And it's cut like a fruit on the blade of a knife[00:01:16]
And it's all there to see as the section reveals[00:01:21]
There's some sorrow in every life[00:01:25]
If it reads like a puzzle a wandering maze[00:01:30]
Then I won't understand ‘til the end of my days[00:01:35]
I'm still forced to remember [00:01:40]
Remember the words of my life[00:01:43]
There are promises broken and promises kept[00:01:55]
Angry words that were spoken when I should have wept[00:02:00]
There's a chapter of secrets and words to confess[00:02:04]
If I lose everything that I possess[00:02:09]
There's a chapter on loss and a ghost who won't die[00:02:14]
There's a chapter on love where the ink's never dry[00:02:19]
There are sentences served in a prison I built out of lies [00:02:24]
Though the pages are numbered[00:02:37]
I can't see where they lead[00:02:41]
For the end is a mystery no-one can read[00:02:46]
In the book of my life[00:02:52]
There's a chapter on fathers a chapter on sons[00:03:06]
There are pages of conflicts that nobody won[00:03:10]
And the battles you lost and your bitter defeat [00:03:15]
There's a page where we fail to meet[00:03:20]
There are tales of good fortune that couldn't be planned[00:03:25]
There's a chapter on god that I don't understand[00:03:30]
There's a promise of Heaven and Hell but I'm damned if I see[00:03:35]
Though the pages are numbered[00:03:47]
I can't see where they lead[00:03:52]
For the end is a mystery no-one can read[00:03:57]
In the book of my life[00:04:03]
Now the daylight's returning[00:04:24]
And if one sentence is true[00:04:29]
All these pages are burning[00:04:34]
And all that's left is you[00:04:39]
Though the pages are numbered[00:05:06]
I can't see where they lead[00:05:11]
For the end is a mystery no-one can read[00:05:15]
In the book of my life[00:05:22]
