POETRY IN MUSIC

I COULD WRITE A BOOK

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 of friends.

I Could Write A Book 

Lyrics: Lorenz Hart
Music: Richard Rodgers
From the Broadway musical comedy, PAL JOEY.
Opened at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre, New York City on December 25, 1940.
Director: George Abbott
