Everyday I Write The Book |
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, 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 chapters four, five and six |
And I’m giving you a longing look |
Everyday, everyday, 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, 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 was 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, everyday, everyday I write the book |
Everyday, everyday, everyday I write the book |
Everyday, everyday, everyday I write the book |
Everyday, everyday, everyday |
Everyday I write the book |
Everyday, everyday |
Everyday I write the book |
Everyday, everyday |
Everyday I write the book |
Everyday, everyday |
Everyday I write the book |
Everyday, everyday |
Everyday I write the book |
Everyday, everyday |
Everyday I write the book |
Everyday, everyday |
Everyday I write the book |
Everyday, everyday |
Everyday I write the book |
Everyday, everyday |
Everyday I write the book |
Everyday, everyday |
Everyday I write the book |
Everyday, everyday |
