Tony Bennett - I Could Write a Book (take 2) lyrics

A-B-C-D-E-G-H 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
