Alec Benjamin – The Book of You & I Lyrics

The Book of You & I By Alec Benjamin Well, it all began in the back of her car I was just 16 but I fell so hard Well, the years went by and she held my heart But her love ran dry and we fell apart I felt her growing distant I knew her love was shifting And all that I could say was Don’t tell me that it’s over The book of you and I Now you’ve scribbled out my name And you’ve erased my favorite lines There were so many chapters that we never got to write Buy cereal for dinner And staying up all night I remember where we started I remember how you looked but now I’m missing bits and pieces from the pages that you took You didn’t give a reason, I’ll forever wonder why We never got to finish the book of you and I Well, I bought a pen and I turned the page Then I wrote about how I wish you’d stayed I said all the things that I never got to say Maybe when it’s done I will feel okay That she had grown distant I knew her love had shifted I wish she felt the s

There’s no one here to hold me now There’s no one here
