ray charles - i could write a book lyrics

[joey]
a-b-c-d-e-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.
then the world discovers as my book ends
how to make two lovers a friend.

[linda]
use to hate to go to school
i never cracked a book;
i played the hook.
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.
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 a friend.

- ray charles
