elizabeth gerardi – great american novel lyrics
[verse 1]
once was written in a cryptic code
but you cracked it
once was written in a dead language
so you learned latin
kept my guard up, kept my pages shut
’till you came around, and i opened up
[chorus]
you read me like a book and said i was
a great american novel
you know all my darkest chapters
and still keep me on the top shelf
you touch me like a first edition
in pristine condition
even though it’s far from true
i wasn’t a masterpiece
’till i was held by you
[verse 2]
once was cobweb covered
just waiting
for someonе to fall in love with all my dusty pages
kept my guard up, kеpt my pages shut
’till you came around, and i opened up
[chorus]
you read me like a book and said i was
a great american novel
you know all my darkest chapters
and still keep me on the top shelf
you touch me like a first edition
in pristine condition
even though it’s far from true
i wasn’t a masterpiece
’till i was held by you
[bridge]
front to back, you’ve memorised me
and say i’m a classic
no one else is lucky enough to read
[chorus x2]
you read me like a book and said i was
a great american novel
you know all my darkest chapters
and still keep me on the top shelf
you touch me like a first edition
in pristine condition
even though it’s far from true
i wasn’t a masterpiece
’till i was held by you
you read me like a book and said i was
a great american novel
you know all my darkest chapters
and still keep me on the top shelf
you touch me like a first edition
in pristine condition
even though it’s far from true
i wasn’t a masterpiece
’till i was held by you
