Betty Carter - I Could Write a Book Lyrics.
If they ask 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, never, never forget.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.To write I used to think was wasting ink It was never my endeavor to be to clever and smart Now I suddenly feel our longing to write in my heart If they asked me, I could write a book.
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.If they ask 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 of friends If they ask me, I could write a book About.
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.
