If I Were a Bell

Blossom Dearie

Ask me how do I feel,
Now that we're cosy and clinging,
Well sir, all I can say is
If I were a bell I'd be ringing!

From the moment we met tonight,
That's the way I just gotta behave,
Boy, if I were a lamp I'd light,
Or 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!

Or if I were a season,
I'd surely be Spring,
Yes, and if I were a bell,
If I were a bell,
If I were a bell
I'd go "Ding dong ding dong ding!".
