THE SONG

Dear Bookstore Lyrics

Song by Emily Arrow

Dear Bookstore down the street,
I think that you’re so neat.
Dear Bookstore on the corner,
your magic is real to me.

I’m pretty sure that you’re the reason I read.
I’m pretty sure that you’re the reason I’m me.
Everybody says the neighborhood-
it has been changing for years,
but Dear Bookstore, I’m glad you’re here.

Dear Bookstore with the windows
full of color as the seasons go and go,
and as I grow and grow.

I’m pretty sure that you’re the reason I write.
I’m pretty sure that every day, you change somebody’s life.
And everybody says that
reading paper books is so out of date.
But Dear Bookstore, I’m glad you’re brave.

Oh, oh, oh, oh there’s a magic,
oh, oh, oh, oh behind your doors.
Ih, oh, oh, oh in a big crazy world,
there’s one place I can count on for sure….my bookstore down the street.
