Like A Paperback- published by timothymichaelmusic.com 7/21/2021

V1.

I’ve been stumbling through the wilderness

Trying to figure out this mess

I just want to pause and hit rewind

Things I’ve done and things I’ve said

My hope is hanging on by a thread

And I know I’m running out of time

Chorus

If you’ll give me an hour or even a minute

I’ll figure out some way to spin it

Give me a chance to win you back

Please give me a day so I can ask ya

Just how I can master this disaster

You gotta let me take a crack

I’ll write you a poem, I’ll write you a song

To sway your heart back to where it belongs

I need a new angle of attack

Taking this chance might be tough

But I can be your diamond in the rough

Let me romance you like a paperback

V2.

I’ve been climbing up the mountains

And I’ve been drifting on the seas

But I can’t escape your memory’s reach

I’ve been drunken and I’ve been sober

But there ain’t no getting over

All these lessons you can’t unteach

Chorus

If you’ll give me an hour or even a minute

I’ll figure out some way to spin it

Give me a chance to win you back

Please give me a day so I can ask ya

Just how I can master this disaster

You gotta let me take a crack

I’ll write you a poem, I’ll write you a song

To sway your heart back where it belongs

I need a new angle of attack.

Taking this chance might be tough

But I can be your diamond in the rough

Let me romance you like a paperback
