Don't tell me you don't know what love is when you're old enough to
G#m C#m F#m
know better. When you find strange hands in your sweater, when
G#m C# F#m
your dreamboat turns out to be a footnote, I'm a man with a
G#m B
mission in two or three editions, andÉ
(chorus)
E G#m A B E G#m
I'm giving you a long look ev'ryday, ev'ryday,

ev'ryday, ev'ryday I write the book.

The way you walk, the way you talk and try to kiss me and laugh in four

Don't tell me you don't know the diff'rence, between a lover and a
