flatt and scruggs
that old book of mine
I am reading today in my book of the past, From it's pages so yellow and old. Each memory of you as I read the book through Is worth more than silver and gold. (chorus) I go back to the time I once called you mine Oh, how happy the sweet long ago. Each page that I turn seems to make my heart yearn For the love I no longer share with you. In this old book of mine many verses I find That you wrote in the sweet used to be In my heart there's regret, please forgive and forget And rewrite all the pages for me (repeat chorus twice)
