Book I Haven't Read (alternate version)

The crickets cry tonight

Here comes your girl

The showers fall tonight

It's a rainy world

The shivers on the spine

Could be what we had in mind

Remember all the times we said

We could be we should be in love

On a windy porch tonight

Here comes your girl

Beneath the dull porch light

Your thoughts will curl

Past the women and the men

To where the story ends

The voice from up above says

We could be we should be in love

My disgusting habits end

It's a crazy world

Neither real nor pretend

And there's your girl

My eyes fall from my head

With all the pages read

And I'm so glad you said

We could be we should be in love
