Don't tell me you
don't know what love is
When you're old enough
to know better
WHEN YOU FIND
STRANGE HANDS
IN YOUR SWEATER
When your dreamboat
turns out to be a
footnote I'm a man
with a mission in
two or three editions
And I'm giving you a
longing look
Everyday, everyday,
everyday everyday
I write the book
Chapter One we didn't
really get along
Chapter Two I think
I fell in love with you
You said you'd
stand by me in the
middle of Chapter Three
But you were
up to your old
tricks in Chapter
Four, Five and Six
And I'm giving you a
longing look
Everyday, everyday,
everyday everyday
I write the book
The way you walk
The way you talk,
and try to kiss me,
and laugh In four or
five paragraphs
All your
compliments and your
cutting remarks Are
captured here in my
quotation marks
And I'm giving you a
longing look
Everyday, everyday,
everyday everyday
I write the book
everyday
I write the book
Don't tell me you
don't know the difference
Between a lover
and a fighter
With my pen and my
electric typewriter
Even in a perfect world
where everyone is equal
I'd still own the film
rights and be
working on the sequel
And I'm giving you a
longing look
Everyday, everyday,
everyday everyday
I write the book
Everyday, everyday,
everyday
I write the book
Everyday, everyday,
everyday
I write the book
And I'm giving you a
longing look everyday
I write the book
And I'm giving you a
longing look everyday
I write the book
And I'm giving you a
longing look everyday
I write the book
