Dusty Pages

So get that hurt look off your face

No need to be alarmed

I was only tryin' not to lose my place

I didn't mean no harm

This place we've come to, it's a brand-new world

With a whole new set of rules

And I'm not complainin' and I ain't enraged

Just a bit confused

Would you be my friend through the ages?

Watch the decades driftin' by?

And read to me from dusty pages all the echoes of our lives?

You'd fold the napkins, sittin' on the stairs

Through the afternoon

And I'd sit there watchin' 'til you'd stack the chairs

From across the room

I kept your letters in my file

Kept 'em safe and sound

And I read back through 'em once in a while

When there's no one else around

Would you be my friend through the ages?

Watch the decades driftin' by?

And read to me from dusty pages all the echoes of our lives?

Would you be my friend through the ages?

Watch the decades driftin' by?

And read to me from dusty pages all the echoes of our lives?
