Lyrics
Open up the pages, lookin' inside
All the worlds of wonder that therein reside
Character, encounter, plot
Chapter, verse, forget-me-not
A twice-told tale that we tell ourselves
Gather 'round the fire, gettin' warm and tight
As we read together on this World Book Night
One word and another and another 'til light
Reading together on World Book Night
Books about the future, books about the past
Books to make you remember when you read them last
Books for summer breezin' by the beach or the sea
Books to make you marvel at life's mystery
There's picture books for coffee tables, paperbacks for planes
Biographs and monographs and demographs and some for laughs
And books you have to study, and books that are so rare
And books you give to someone to show how much you care
And books that tell you who you are and who you want to be
Books to make you think of the ways that we're free
Gather 'round the fire, gettin' warm and tight
As we read together on this World Book Night
One word and another and another 'til light
Reading together on World Book Night
Words have power, that's what they say
A library living on long past today
And somewhere there's a reader, you never know who
Who reads these words as these words read you
Gather 'round the fire, gettin' warm and tight
As we read together on this World Book Night
One word and another and another 'til light
Reading together on World Book Night
One word and another and another and another
And another and another and another and another
And another and another and another and another
And another and another and another and another
And another and another and another and another
And another and another and another and another
And another and another and another and another
Reading together on World Book Night
