Lyrics
[Soft Felt Piano Intro]
The brown leather book rests at the bed's head
Each night I write a line about you
[Verse 1]
On the twelfth you brought a cup of warm milk
On the twentieth I noted your smile
Ordinary days turned sacred
When lined up side by side into a book
[Pre-Chorus]
A corner of the page folded long ago
Because that was the day we said we loved
[Chorus]
Pages smell like us
Scent of ink, of sunlight, of you
Pages smell like us
Each page a day that we lived
[Verse 2]
When we're old I'll sit and read it again
Even the times we fought are written down
For even those creases
Are proof that we belong to each other
[Chorus]
Pages smell like us
Scent of ink, of sunlight, of you
Pages smell like us
Each page a day that we lived
[Bridge]
Love isn't only in the vows
But in the small lines written each night
A diary thick with the years
[Chorus]
Pages smell like us
Scent of ink, of sunlight, of you
Pages smell like us
Each page a day that we lived
[Outro]
The last page isn't finished yet
For we're still writing on
[Fade Out]
[End]
