1
A-B-C-D-E-G
2
I never learned to spell
3
At least not well.
4
1-2-3-4-5-6-7
5
I never learned to count
6
A great amount.
7
But my busy mind is burning
8
To use what learning I've got.
9
I won't waste any time,
10
I'll strike while the iron is hot.
11
If they asked me, I could write a book
12
About the way you walk and whisper and look.
13
I could write a preface on how we met
14
So the world would never forget.
15
And the simple secret of the plot
16
Is just to tell them that I love you a lot.
17
Then the world discovers as my book ends
18
How to make two lovers a friend.
19
Use to hate to go to school
20
I never cracked a book;
21
I played the hook.
22
Never answered any mail;
23
To write I used to think was wasting ink.
24
It was never my endeavor
25
To be too clever and smart.
26
Now I suddenly feel
27
A longing to write in my heart.
28
If they asked me, I could write a book
29
About the way you walk and whisper and look.
30
I could write a preface on how we met
31
So the world would never forget.
32
And the simple secret of the plot
33
Is just to tell them that I love you a lot.
34
Then the world discovers as my book ends
35
How to make two lovers a friend.
