Turner Video made in: https://vizzy.io Your grandmother kept a journal by the bed Fifty years of Tuesdays in a faded red She filled every page she could hold a pen to write Then she left a chapter open in the night And we read it back like we'd find the end Turn the last page over again and again But the last page just says — today I planted seeds Every life's a book that no one gets to finish Every spine is cracked somewhere in the middle We all want to see how the story ends But the ink runs out before the sentence does And the shelf keeps filling up with books left open With the last lines waiting, patient, caught in the breath There's a man at the diner on the corner booth Been working on a crossword since the days of youth He says the trick is not to need the final square Just love the letters, love the ones who sit and stare And I've watched him fold the paper, walk away Leave a little blank for the following day Like the not-knowing is the softest kind of grace Every life's a book that no one gets to finish Every spine is cracked somewhere in the middle We all want to see how the story ends But the ink runs out before the sentence does And the shelf keeps filling up with books left open With the last lines waiting, patient, caught in the breath My father used to say he had one more good year Then one more after that He kept renewing like a library book Dog-eared, loved to death, never given back Every life's a book that no one gets to finish Every spine is cracked somewhere in the middle We all want to see how the story ends But the ink runs out before the sentence does And the shelf keeps filling up with books left open With the last lines waiting, patient, caught in the breath Yeah! Yeah the last lines waiting Still warm Still caught in the breath Still caught in the breath Still caught in the breath Still caught in the breath
