My Favourite Book (Flack)

I was always late, you never afraid
That we could be falling
All our friends would say that maybe we should wait
But they can't see what's coming

And to this day when everything breaks
You are the anchor that holds me

And that is why we'll always make it
How I know your face, all the ways you move
You come in, I can read you, you're my favourite book
All the things you say, the way you shift your eyes
I never knew there was someone to make me come alive

When the days are long and the thunder with the storm
Can always get me crying
Well you can make my bed, I'll fall into it
Shadowed but not lonely

'Cause I never knew home until I found your hands

And when I'm weathered, you come to me, you're my best friend

And that is why we'll always make it
How I know your face, all the ways you move
You come in, I can read you, you're my favourite book
All the things you say, the way you shift your eyes
I never knew, there was someone to make me come alive

And when we're making love
I give everything up for your touch

How I know your face, all the ways you move
You come in, I can read you, you're my favourite book
All the things you say, the way you shift your eyes
I never knew, there was someone to make me come alive

And when you go to work, all the day I wait
For you to come home, make it our time in our little place
Our little place, our little place
Our little place, our little place, our little place
