Lyrics
She saw a strawberry moon
In the Illinois sky.=
It made her think of him
But she forgot it by and by
The moon was just a dream
His love was never real
She read it in a book
And liked the way it made her feel
But books are books and Love is temporary
We all got a story nobody wants to hear
Books are books and Life goes on without us
When it takes too long and the message isn't clear
He fell off of the turnip truck
Into the middle of the road
She picked him up and bound his wounds
And then she took him home
Her Love for him was real
And this he surely knew
But she was gone in the morning
Faded like the dew
But books are books and Love is temporary
We all got a story nobody wants to hear
Books are books and Life goes on without us
When it takes too long and the message isn't clear
She heard a lonesome whistle calling
Like a wounded dinosaur
From a place of broken rocks and bones
And beaches wracked by storms
She found a different hero
And saw a different moon
She learned a different language
To tell her problems to
When the dust blew away from
The movie in her mind
She was so disappointed
To suddenly find
Her speaking parts
Had all been cut
The door she had walked in through
Was suddenly shut
Because books are books and Love is temporary
We all got a story nobody wants to hear
Books are books and Life goes on without us
When it takes too long and the message isn't clear
