Lyrics

(Back-up) <frank with back-up> [connie haines]

My first edition is written for you
It isn't fiction, the story is true
And my heart is stirred by each little word
Telling how sweet you are
My first edition has pages of dreams
My great ambition for you is the theme
And each little phrase expresses some praise
Telling how sweet you are
I wrote a preface about your profile
And I wrote a chapter 'bout your kiss
I'm elated to dedicate it to the one inspiring me in this
My first edition is never to end
With each rendition, I'll write it again
I cherish each part with all of my heart
Darling, how sweet you are
(He always thought he'd like to write a book or two)
(But never had a reason till he looked at you)
(Now every night he beams delight, and writes triple triple triple triple,)
(Truth and fiction were the same to him until he metcha)
(And got inspiration, now it's romance,)
(Come on, connie, here's your chance to free lance)
[Here I am, and while I'm here, love, say ]
[This first edition was written for me,]
[It isn't fiction, it's easy to see,]
[And my heart is stirred by each little word ]
(And why not, when they're saying how sweet you are.)
[My first edition has pages of dreams,]
[My great ambition for love is the theme,]
[And each little phrase expresses some praise,]
(And it should, as sweet you are.)
I wrote a preface about your profile
And I wrote a chapter 'bout your kiss
I'm elated to dedicate it to the one inspiring me in this
My first edition is never to end
With each rendition, I'll write it again
I cherish each part with all of my heart
How sweet you are
