If I Were A Bell

(album: Lovely Standards - 2007)

Ask me how do I feel, ask me now that we're cozy and clinging
Well sir, all I can say is if I were a bell I'd be ringing
From the moment we kissed tonight
That's the way I've just gotta behave
Boy, if I were a lamp I'd light and if I were a banner I'd wave

Ask me how do I feel, little me with my quiet upbringing
Well sir, all I can say is if I were a gate I'd be swinging
And if I were a watch I'd start popping my springs
And if I were a bell I'd go ding dong, ding dong ding

Ask me how do I feel from this chemistry lesson, we're learning
Well sir, all I can say, is if I were a bridge I'd be burning
Well, I knew my moral would crack
From the wonderful way that you looked
Boy, if I were a duck I'd quack and if I were a goose I'd be cooked

Ask me how do I feel, ask me now that we're finally caressing
If I were a salad I'd surely be splashing my dressing
And if I were a season, I'd surely be spring
And if I were a bell I'd go ding dong, ding dong ding
