about

A Magnetic Fields cover, off their 1999 album, "69 Love Songs"
Written by Stephin Merritt

This one's for Andie & Pete.

lyrics

The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures
And instructions for dancing

But I love it when you read to me
But you could read me anything

The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it's just transcendental
Some of it is just really dumb

But I love it when you sing to me
But you could sing me anything

The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know

But I love it when you give me things
But you ought to give me wedding rings
