Ella Fitzgerald
i could write a book
Select language to translate this lyric
A B C D E F 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
And the world discovers as my book ends
How to make two lovers of friends
And the simple secret of the plot
Is just to tell them that I love you a lot
And the world discovers as my book ends
How to make two lovers of friends
