He tore out the pages one by one They went in the fire when he was done Watching the paper burn was fun while it lasted He found her diary in a drawer Promised, he'd read one page, no more But a part of him was sure, he'd read past it He saw a name he recognized He saw the truth with his own eyes How a restless heart can find brand new love She never really said goodbye Two hundred pages told him why And he cried, cover to cover Sometimes they lock them with a key Serves him right, her's would have to be In a place that's guaranteed he would find it He watched them meet on page fifteen Describing a man he'd never seen Her heart going back and forth, between aware and blinded You know it could mean a broken heart He was a fool to even start But with every page he reads he turns another In her own hand now leather bound He just could not put it down So he cried, cover to cover, yes, he cried, cover to cover
