Book You Never Read Lyrics - The Rock - Tracy Lawrence

When you were lost and needed help 

I hoped you would have turned to me 

And when you couldn't save yourself 

I watched you drowned that misery 

I've seen the damage you have done 

Every teardrop and misstep 

You know I could have saved you some 

I'm the book you never read 

Your granddaddy carried me in World War 2 

Your grandma swears that I am the truth 

Your parents hands were on me when they wed 

I'm like a member of the family 

Three generations have handed me down 

I'm in the drawer by your bed 

I'm the book you never read 

I can't take the first step for you 

But when you take that step you'll find 

You are the key, I am the door to 

Forgiveness and some peace of mind and you know 

Your granddaddy carried me in World War 2 

Your grandma swears that I am the truth 

Your parents hands were on me when they wed 

I'm like a member of the family 

Three generations have handed me down 

And despite that is all they've said 

I'm still the book you never read 

So when the world treats you unkindly 

And your heart is heavy with regret 

That's when I wish you would find me 

I'm the book you've never read 

Your granddaddy carried me in World War 2 

Your grandma swears that I am the truth 

Your parents hands were on me when they wed 

I'm like a member of the family 

Three generations have handed me down 

I'm in the drawer by your bed 

I'm still book you never read, you've never read
