This Could Be the Start of Something

You're walking along the street, or you're at a party

or else you're alone and then you suddenly dig

you're looking in someone's eyes

you suddenly realize

that this could be the start of something big

You're lunching at "21", you're watching your diet

declining a charlotte russe, accepting a fig

when out of a clear blue sky

it's suddenly gal and guy

and this could be the start of something big

There's no controlling the unrolling of your fate, my friend

who knows what's written in the magic book

but when a lover you discover at the gate, my friend

invite her in without a second look

You're up in an aeroplane or dining at sardi's

or lying at malibu, alone on the sand

you suddenly hear a bell

and right away you can tell

that this could be the start of something grand

This could be the start of something very big

why don't you play your part

please give your heart to me, and see

this could be the start of something wonderful

why don't you take a chance

and try romance with me, and see

You're watching the sun come up or counting your money

or else in a dim cafe, you're ordering wine

then suddenly there he is

and you wanna be where he is

and this must be the start of something

this could be the heart of something

this could be the start of something... big!
