Simple Minds Book Of Brilliant Things Lyrics

(Next that ... up)
Thank you for the voice, the eyes, and the memory shine
Thank you for the pictures of living in the beautiful black and white
Some say we'll be together for a very long time
Some say that our first impressions never will lie.
[Chorus, 2X]
I would love to take a look
Into the bright and shiny book
Into the open scheme of things
Book of brilliant things
Book of brilliant things
I thank you for the shadows, it takes two or three to make company
I thank you for the lightning that should fell and sparkle out in the rain
Some say this could be the great divide
Someday some of them say that our hearts will
   beat like the wheels of a fast train going 'round the world
[Chorus, 2X]
I would love to take a look
Into the bright and shiny book
Into the open scheme of things
Book of brilliant things
Book of brilliant things
I open up to take a look
Into the bright and shiny book
Book of brilliant things
Book of brilliant things
Some say we can be together for a very long time
Some say our hearts will beat like the wheels of a fast train
   all around the world
All around the world
All around the world
Some say our hearts beat like the wheels of a fast train
   all around the world
All around, around, around, around, all around the world
Our hearts beat like the wheels of a fast train, a very long time
All around, all around the, all around the, all around the world
Some say we'll be together
Some say for a very long time
Some of them will say a very long time
All around the world
All around the world, all around, around ...
