Classic Lyrics

She's got pride with no prejudice

Strong and wise like Atticus

She'll thunder like a storm does

She's Steinbeck's California

But there's kindness in her heart for both mice and men

It feels like Aslan's on the move

Every time she's in the room

Every moment with her, Lord knows

It's like walking through the wardrobe

And coming out the other side with my best friend

She's loyal like a lonesome dove

All Jane Austen ever knew of love

Every masterpiece in every age

Every chapter, every page

She's surpassed it

She's a classic

When the boys are wild and violent

She's the sky over the island

Shining light into the places that are dark

In the best of times, in the worst of times

I'm still hers and she's still mine

It's sure even when things fall apart

Charlotte took one look at her

And could not weave a web of words

She was speechless, as she had not been before

If he was close enough to witness

She'd make Orwell optimistic

There was beauty still in 1984

She's loyal like a lonesome dove

All Jane Austen ever knew of love

Every masterpiece in every age

Every chapter, every page

She's surpassed it

She's a classic

Shakespeare wasn't ready for

The task of crafting metaphors

That would capture all the depth that she requires

I'm the dark

I'm the cold

And she's the fire

I'm an old man, and she's the sea

She knows my best and brings it out of me

Hemingway and all his friends

Would try and fail and try again

No book could ever solve her mystery

She's loyal like a lonesome dove

All Jane Austen ever knew of love

Every masterpiece in every age

Every chapter, every page

She's surpassed it

She's a classic
