Manchester (Acoustic Edition)

I wrote me a book

Hid the last page

Didn't even look

Think I locked it in a cage

Wrote a novel

'Cause everybody likes to read a novel

Started with a word

And it started pretty well

About a rare, fragile bird

That I couldn't even spell

On the table

Think I left it on the table

I found the last page in the sky

Cold and sweet, like an apple

I found you and now the story has its proper end

Oh hello, will you be mine?

I haven't felt this alive in a long time

All the streets are warm today, hey

Read the signs

Haven't been this in love in a long time

The sun is up, the sun will stay

All for the new day

The very last breath

Of the hero of our tale

Would leave you only to guess

Did he truly prevail

In the sequel?

I guess I'll have to write a sequel

My favorite part's when I die

In your arms like a movie

Tragic, but now the story has its proper end

Oh hello, will you be mine?

Haven't felt this alive in a long time

All the streets are warm today, hey

I read the signs

Haven't been this in love in a long time

The sun is up, the sun will stay

All for the new day

Will you be mine?

Days are short and I've wrote me my last rhyme

All the streets are warm today

I read the signs

Haven't been this in love in a long time

It's been a long time

It's been a long time
