I Could Write a Book — текст песни (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 Ive got,

I wont waste any time,

Ill 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

And the world discovers

As my book ends,

How to make two lovers

Of friends.
