I Could Write a Book

I Could Write A Book - Ella Fitzgerald

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
