I Can't Close the Book Lyrics

I try to forget you and yet you are everywhere that I look
The story is over all over but I can't close the book
Must I hear your laughter hereafter in every whispering brook
Although it was splendid it ended but I can't close the book

The chapter had to finish it's time to turn the page
But the flame just won't diminish when a heart won't act it's age
So if you should see me so dreamy excuse the faraway look
The story is over all over but I can't close the book

But the flame just won't diminish when a heart won't act it's age
So if you should see me so dreamy excuse the faraway look
The story is over all over but I can't close the book.
