[Verse 1]
I don’t know
I don’t know how it happened so fast
I was flying one minute
And the next it had all gone away

[Chorus]
Then there was the train
And there was the rain
And it was just like the book
Like the book, like the book said

[Verse 2]
I’m so sorry I can’t love you
I’m sorry it was just a dance
Oh, you do good for me, baby, you do good for me
But you’re over there and I’m here in my trance

[Chorus]
‘Til I hit the ground and I turn around
And I see the train and I feel the rain
And then it’s just like the book
Like the book, like the book said

[Verse 3]
I believe you
I believe you when you smile and breathe that way
Oh, I believe you, baby, I believe you
But I just don’t wanna stay
[Chorus]
‘Cause I hit the ground and I turned around
And I saw the train and felt that rain
And it was just like the book
Like the book, like the book said
It was just like the book
Like the book, like the book said

[Bridge]
Ooh, child
Ooh, child
Ooh, child

[Verse 4]
I don’t know
I don’t know how it happened so fast
I was flying one minute
And the next it had all gone away

[Chorus]
I hit the ground and I turned around
And I saw the train and I felt that rain
And it was just like the book
Like the book, like the book said
