歌詞

Oh, what a line, what a line

I have to read it twice

Some sentences just stand right up

And curtsy off the page

This one has walked into my chest

And built a little stage

I say it soft, I say it slow

I say it once again

La-la, what a lovely line

It waltzes as I read

Sing a new song, the old book says

And this one's new indeed

I write it on a scrap of card

To pin above the sink

So washing cups on Tuesday nights

Can rhyme with what I think

The rain taps out the meter

The lamp provides the glow

La-la, what a lovely line

It waltzes as I read

Sing a new song, the old book says

And this one's new indeed

Words were His idea first

The rhythm and the rhyme

No wonder that a well-turned phrase

Can make a heart keep time

Mmm... mmm... mmm

La-la, what a lovely line

It waltzes as I read

Sing a new song, the old book says

And this one's new indeed

La-la, what a lovely line

It waltzes as I read

Sing a new song, the old book says

And this one's new indeed

Oh, what a line, what a line

I'll keep it all my life
