Nat “King” Cole
If I Knew
[Verse 1]
If I knew what the nightingale sings in her song
If I knew why the meadow is sweet all day long
If I knew how the mockingbird trills to his dove
His sad sweet secret of love

[Verse 2]
Then I'd know how the mountaintop reaches so high
Then I'd know how the moonlight softens a sigh
Then I'd know how the ramblers bloom as they do
And at last, I'd know the secret of you

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Then I'd know how the ramblers bloom as they do
And at last, I'd know the secret of you
