Back of a Bible

Wrote you a love song on the back of a Bible
 On the back of a Bible, a love song for you
 And I ain't no authority about what it says in it
 I can't even begin it
 Page in the back is blank and waiting for you
 Heard me a sad song on the way to a wedding
 On the way to a wedding on the car radio
 And I can't remember words to the verses
 But I remember the chorus
 And I can't remember who was marrying who
 But I'm writing this love song for you
 And I hate this motel room, they all smell the same
 View of the parking lot etched in my brain
 Stuck in this town and you're so far away
 I ain't got no paper, I just got this pen
 Rip out the back page and write you a hymn
 Singing it to you again and again and again
 Wrote you a love song on the back of a Bible
 On the back of a Bible for you
 Ain't no authority about what it says in it
 I can't even begin it but I'm writing for you
