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.
