PETER GABRIEL - The Book Of Love lyrics

<span class="feat">(originally by The Magnetic Fields)</span><br>

<br>

The book of love is long and boring<br />

No one can lift the damn thing<br />

It's full of charts and facts, some figures and instructions for dancing<br />

<br />

But I,<br />

I love it when you read to me.<br />

And you,<br />

You can read me anything.<br />

<br />

The book of love has music in it,<br />

In fact that's where music comes from.<br />

Some of it is just transcendental,<br />

Some of it is just really dumb.<br />

<br />

But I,<br />

I love it when you sing to me.<br />

And you,<br />

You can sing me anything.<br />

<br />

The book of love is long and boring,<br />

And written very long ago.<br />

It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes,<br />

And things we're all too young to know.<br />

<br />

But I,<br />

I love it when you give me things.<br />

And you,<br />

You ought to give me wedding rings.<br />

<br />

And I,<br />

I love it when you give me things.<br />

And you,<br />

You ought to give me wedding rings.<br />

You ought to give me wedding rings.
