If I Were A Bell

Doris Day · Love To Be With You [2008]

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 kissed goodnight,

That's the way I just gotta behave,

And 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!



And if I were a watch,

I'd start popping my spring,

Oh, and if I were a bell

I'd go "Ding dong ding dong ding!".



Ask me how do I feel

>From this chemistry lesson I'm 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 you looked;

Boy, if I were a duck I'd quack,

Or if I were a goose I'd be cooked!



Ask me how do I feel

Now that we're fondly caressing;

And if I were a salad,

I know I'd be splashing my dressing!



Or if I were a season,

I'd surely be Spring,

Yes, and if I were a bell,

Say, if I were a bell,

If I were a bell

I'd go "Ding dong ding dong ding!".
