It's written in the book
It's hotter than I've known before,
but I feel so cold, and I don't know why
But if the fire within your heart can beat the storm
Then I really believe, you could make it right
Ooh the time has come now
We must show our feelings
But I'm looking right through you
And your heart is empty
Whatever happened to you it's too late to change now
There's nowhere you can run to, no place to hide
Please, oh please you let me down!

Can't you see me? I'm slipping away
Bm Bm/A Bm/G E/F#
I can only stay if you've the will to keep me here, oh lord
It's written in the book
Oh so many times since I've read those words
Just waiting to see you, can you see me?
Tell me can you see me?
