It's just a book
You should not cry
It's just a book
But why tell me that lie

More real to me
Than all of you
With spring green meadows
And skies of blue

Where love rings true
And everyone is happy
It's what makes me smile
Even if its sappy

A place to escape
When no one will care
A place to be free
With no burden to bear

They hide behind covers
That might no look right
But who says they're bad
Maybe you don't have sight

Great things
Are found in a book
So why judge them
By how they look

No, It's just a book
Yes, Where I can be free
No, It's just a book
Yes, Where I can be me
