Love in the Library
2
By: Jimmy Buffett, Mac McAnally
3
1994
4
On the corner of Government and Bay Avenue
5
The old doomsday fanatic wore a crown of kudzu
6
Sirens were wailing in the Gulf Coastal heat
7
And it seemed like the whole world was in forced retreat
8
Paid no attention, revolved through the door
9
Past the newspaper racks on the worn marble floor
10
Near Civil War history my heart skipped a beat
11
She was standing in fiction stretched high on bare feet
12
Chorus:
13
Love in the library
14
Quiet and cool
15
Love in the library
16
There are no rules
17
Surrounded by stories
18
Surreal and sublime
19
I fell in love in the library
20
Once upon a time
21
I was the pirate, she was the queen
22
Sir Francis and Elizabeth, the best there's ever been
23
Then she strolled past my table and stopped at the stairs
24
Then sent me a smile as she reached for Flaubert
25
Chorus:
26
Love in the library
27
Quiet and cool
28
Love in the library
29
There are no rules
30
Surrounded by stories
31
Surreal and sublime
32
I fell in love in the library
33
Once upon a time
34
She gathered her books, walked while she read
35
Words never spoken, but so much was said
36
You can read all you want into this rendezvous
37
But it's safer than most things that lovers can do
38
Well stories have endings, fantasies fade
39
And the guard by the door starts drawing the shade
40
So write your own ending and hope it comes true
41
For the lovers and strangers on Bay Avenue
42
Chorus:
43
Love in the library
44
Quiet and cool
45
Love in the library
46
There are no rules
47
Surrounded by stories
48
Surreal and sublime
49
I fell in love in the library
50
Once upon a time
51
Surrounded by stories
52
Surreal and sublime
53
I fell in love in the library
54
Once upon a time
