Norah Jones Lyrics
The plot begins with you
And me in darklit rooms
Your cigarette cuts through
I wear it like perfume
The melody gives way
We silently behave
The story never ends
Is torn up into shreds
I see it in your eyes
Invitation lies
But pages left to turn
Our chapters we should burn
The melody gives way
We silently behave
The story never end
Is torn up into shreds
I see it in your eyes
An Invitation lies
But pages left to turn
Our chapters we should burn

Your cigarette cuts through
I wear it like perfume
The melody gives way
We silently behave
The story never ends
Is torn up into shreds
I see it in your eyes
Invitation lies
Book pages left to turn
Our chapters we should burn
The melody gives way
We silently behave
The story never ends
Is torn up into shreds
I see it in your eyes
And invitation lies
Book pages left to turn
Our chapters we should burn

The plot begins with you
And me in darklit rooms
Your cigarette cuts through
I wear it like perfume
The melody gives way
We silently behave
The story never read
is torn up into shreds
I see it in your eyes
Invitation lies
But pages left to turn
Our chapters we should burn
The melody gives way
We silently behave
The story never read
Is torn up into shreds
I see it in your eyes
An Invitation lies
But pages left to turn
Our chapters we should burn
