Many a thing

[Noelia]

I came across this sentence today


Many a thing you know you'd like to tell her


And I was wondering how (and when) do you use this expression. I would just have said "Many things" in this context. But since it's part of a song, maybe it's a problem about syncing the lyrics with the music....

Sí, hubiera dicho 'many things'. 'Many a thing' suena más lleno de lirismo.

Estoy de acuerdo.

Ok, es parte de una cancion, seguramente es as la razon por la que la usaron. Gracias
