[Verse 1] A quiet place to sit A little light to see Some time to read Is really all I need
[Refrain 1] You're unputdownable A story so confounding The pages turn so easily
[Verse 2] You are my favourite book And I like to spend my time I'm fully occupied Reading between the lines
[Refrain 2] You're unputdownable A plot that's so unpredictable That I read on complacently
[Bridge 1] Well, I'm left in confusion By your epilogue Where is the conclusion? A narrative arc Well, it's just been enthralling The disbelief suspended On top, standing still
[Verse 3] No myth or fairy tale Will ever be quite the same No moral to the story You only go down in a blaze of glory
[Refrain 3] You're unputdownable A fable so fantastical I've learned to ready voraciously
[Verse 4] And when at last I come to the end I turn back to page one and again Pour over every word Beautiful and absurd
[Refrain 4] You're unputdownable A story so astounding Could only be the truth you see
[Bridge 2] Well, I don't like intrusions And if I had my way I'd close the door behind me And they'd all melt away I'd open up the book and Climb right out of this town
[Hook] [x2] If you'd let me If you'd be so kind If you'd allow me To read your mind
