“Book of Love” by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons
I wonder, wonder who, who,
who, wrote the book of love
Tell me, tell me, tell me
Oh, who wrote the book of love

This is the version I grew up listening to. Very catchy song.

The Book I Read - Talking Heads.

This quirky tune takes on a double-meaning when you listen to the lyrics. Told from the perspective of a man who’s fallen in love, the listener is left to wonder as he analyses the lines of it’s a person he’s fallen in love, a book, or both.
