My Little Brown Book歌詞

My Little Brown Book - Duke Ellington (艾靈頓公爵)
My little brown book
With the silver binding
How it keeps reminding me
Of a memory
That's haunting me
In some quiet nook
I go through its pages
And peruse this ageless tale
Of a love that failed
To ever become true
On this page is the date
Of that fateful night at eight
When I found
We were no longer in love
After that there's nothing more
Just a close and futile door
That shuts out the stars above
In my little book
I inscribed your heart vow
But since we're apart now
This and that last sweet kiss
Is all life left of you
Is all life left of you
Is all life left of you
