[Verse 1]
A quiet place to sit
A little light to see
Some time to read
Is really all I need
[Refrain 1]
You're unputdownable
A story so confounding
The pages turn so easily
[Verse 2]
You are my favourite book
And I like to spend my time
I'm fully occupied
Reading between the lines
[Refrain 2]
You're unputdownable
A plot that's so unpredictable
That I read on complacently
[Bridge 1]
Well, I'm left in confusion
By your epilogue
Where is the conclusion?
A narrative arc
Well, it's just been enthralling
The disbelief suspended
On top, standing still
[Verse 3]
No myth or fairy tale
Will ever be quite the same
No moral to the story
You only go down in a blaze of glory
[Refrain 3]
You're unputdownable
A fable so fantastical
I've learned to ready voraciously
[Verse 4]
And when at last I come to the end
I turn back to page one and again
Pour over every word
Beautiful and absurd
[Refrain 4]
You're unputdownable
A story so astounding
Could only be the truth you see
[Bridge 2]
Well, I don't like intrusions
And if I had my way
I'd close the door behind me
And they'd all melt away
I'd open up the book and
Climb right out of this town
[Hook] [x2]
If you'd let me
If you'd be so kind
If you'd allow me
To read your mind
[Outro]
To read your mind [x6]
