Kosheen - Like a Book Lyrics

I see you looking my direction
I repay a compliment
Something different in your eyes
You always seem so confident back there

Though there's been a lot of change
Seems to best, and stay the same
I remember you, my friend
Before you changed and went away from me

Believe me
If I could, baby, I would
You know it was all good
If I could
Maybe I'd give you my word
You know me
You read me like a book

I offer you the reassurance
Though it seems irrelevant
Can you see the darkening circles
Around my eyes penetrating your soul

Let's take back to better days
When everything was possible
All this dirty water weighs
My heavy heart is longing for you

Believe me
If I could, baby, I would
You know it was all good
If I could
Maybe I'd give you my word
You know me
You read me like a book
