I Could Write a Book Lyrics
A-B-C-D-E-G
I never learned to spell
At least not well.
1-2-3-4-5-6-7
I never learned to count
A great amount.
But my busy mind is burning
To use what learning I've got.
I won't waste any time,
I'll strike while the iron is hot.
If they asked me, I could write a book
About the way you walk and whisper and look.
I could write a preface on how we met
So the world would never forget.
And the simple secret of the plot
Is just to tell them that I love you a lot.
Then the world discovers as my book ends
How to make two lovers a friend.
Use to hate to go to school
I never cracked a book;
I played the hook.
Never answered any mail;
To write I used to think was wasting ink.
It was never my endeavor
To be too clever and smart.
Now I suddenly feel
A longing to write in my heart.
If they asked me, I could write a book
About the way you walk and whisper and look.
I could write a preface on how we met
So the world would never forget.
And the simple secret of the plot
Is just to tell them that I love you a lot.
Then the world discovers as my book ends
How to make two lovers a friend.
I never learned to spell
At least not well.
I never learned to count
A great amount.
To use what learning I've got.
I'll strike while the iron is hot.
About the way you walk and whisper and look.
So the world would never forget.
Is just to tell them that I love you a lot.
How to make two lovers a friend.
I never cracked a book;
I played the hook.
To write I used to think was wasting ink.
To be too clever and smart.
A longing to write in my heart.
About the way you walk and whisper and look.
So the world would never forget.
Is just to tell them that I love you a lot.
How to make two lovers a friend.
