Every Day I Write the Book

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh

Yeah (Ooh-ooh)

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

Every day, every day (Every day, every day)

Every day, every day 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 (Ooh)

But you were up to your old tricks in chapters four, five, and six

And I'm giving you a longing look

Every day, every day (Every day, every day)

Every day, every day I write the book

The way you walk (We walked)

The way you talk and try to kiss me and laugh (We talked)

In four or five paragraphs (You kissed me, then you kissed me)

All your compliments and your cutting remarks (You kissed me, you kissed me)

Are captured here in my quotation marks (Then you, then you, then you, ooh-ooh)

And I'm giving you a longing look

Every day, every day (Every day, every day)

Every day, every day I write the book

Ooh-ooh

Every day I write the book

Don't tell me you don't know the difference

Between a lover and a fighter

With my pen and then my electric typewriter

Even in a perfect world where everyone was equal

I'd still own the film rights and be workin' on the sequel

And I'm giving you a longing look

Every day, every day (Every day, every day)

Every day, every day I write the book

Every day, every day (Every day)

Every day I write the book

Every day, every day (Every day)

Every day I write the book, yeah

Every day, every day, every day

Every day I write the book

I'm givin' you a longing look and every day, every day I write the book (Every day, every day, every day I write the book)

I'm givin' you a longing look, every day I, I write the book (Every day, every day, every day I write the book)

I'm givin' you a longing look and every day, every day I write the book (Every day, every day, every day I write the book)

I'm givin' you a longing look, every day I write the book, yeah (Every day, every day, every day I write the book)

I'm givin' you a longing look and every day, every day I write the book (Every day, every day, every day I write the book)

I'm givin' you a longing look, every day I write the book (Every day, every day, every day I write the book)

I'm givin' you a longing look and every day, every day I write the book (Every day, every day, every day I write the book)

Every day, Every day, every day, every day (Every day, every day, every day I write the book)

Every day, every day, every day, every day (I'm giving you a longing look and every day, every day I write the book)
