Yeah, 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 |
|
|
|
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 |
|
|
|
I'm giving you a longing look |
|
Everyday, everyday, everyday, everyday, everyday |
|
Everyday I write the book |
|
|
|
Everyday, everyday, everyday |
|
Everyday I write the book |
|
Everyday, everyday, everyday |
|
Everyday I write the book, yeah |
|
|
|
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 |
|
... |
