Lyrics:

The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures and instructions for dancing
But I
I love it when you read to me
And you
You can read me anything
The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it is just transcendental
Some of it is just really dumb
But I
I love it when you sing to me
And you
You can sing me anything
The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know
But I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
You ought to give me wedding rings

    Unfamiliar with this song, I checked the original version. Yours is better. And your voice could stop a human heart dead - please be careful how you use it. A warning on the thumbnail, maybe.

    Old enough to know a fool when I encounter one, and to enjoy his squirming attempts to pull this comment thread back from utter disaster. Do keep trying.

    I think he might be - although I can't say for sure, because Stephin is a musical genius and sometimes I think I'm not clever enough to fully understand his meaning. Having said that, listening to the lyrics, I think it's a clever song because it's very beautiful and sincere, but at the same time, it is totally about the selfish and materialistic version of love. It's realistic in a sense. Listen to the original version (Peter Gabriel also did a cover, but that is truly awful - IMO anyway.)

    Take this from a former member of Mensa: Mentioning your IQ makes you seem absolutely pathetic. That number means little more than that you're good at logic quizzes. I do not care how smart you are, you have not understood this song. If you don't like it musically, that's fine, but when you criticise Stephen's choice of words it shows that you don't get it (yet).

    Ok good. Are you telling me the author of this song is intentionally being critical of lame-ass, white bread, half baked, "Reality Bites", weak minded consciousness? Is that what you are telling me?
