I Could Write a Book
A-B-C-D-E-GI never learned to spellAt least not well.1-2-3-4-5-6-7I never learned to countA great amount.But my busy mind is burningTo 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 bookAbout the way you walk and whisper and look.I could write a preface on how we metSo the world would never forget.And the simple secret of the plotIs just to tell them that I love you a lot.Then the world discovers as my book endsHow to make two lovers a friend.SongtexteUse to hate to go to schoolI 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 endeavorTo be too clever and smart.Now I suddenly feelA longing to write in my heart.If they asked me, I could write a bookAbout the way you walk and whisper and look.I could write a preface on how we metSo the world would never forget.And the simple secret of the plotIs just to tell them that I love you a lot.Then the world discovers as my book endsHow to make two lovers a friend.
