We built this thing from the ground up, babe
Doesn’t that make you proud?
We stand back and stare with dropped jaws at all we have made 

Started out on a Tuesday, Wednesday
Leaning against my car
Radio on, passenger door ajar
I tried to gather whether somebody else had your heart; would I dare to take a stab in the dark? 

Little did I know though, know though 
What had begun occurring under my nose 
Little did I know that I’d be sleeping under your covers through the whole year, honey 

Actor and an actress; I was playing a role so real 
Caught you off guard, contemplate how to feel
I’m thinking we put it down to time and place and event 
Name our behaviour as irrelevant 

But a day well spent was paving the path that was lying ahead 
And two tongues so tied, they loosened to learn one another with time 

For here we are in the summer’s heat, Brunswick St.
Love far from turning sour 
Headed for breakfast at some ungodly hour
And while I live in your pockets, you inhabit my plans
I guess my waist remains a good resting place for your hands 
Boy in your mind did you know it then?
One night with me would turn into a whole weekend, and then some

Didn’t foresee it, thought you were out of my league
Who knew your hazardous gaze would amplify your prestige?

On a day well spent; it was paving the path that was lying ahead
And two tongues so tied, they loosened to learn one another with time
Look at us now, merely in sync
Living this easy I’m beginning to think 
We’re onto a good thing, maybe even the best 
Little did we know that we’d take a chance on a case of happenstance
 
I wonder when you play it in reverse
Do you find the thought oh so comical it hurts?
The people we are now once never could have known how 
We built this thing from the ground up, babe
And doesn’t that make you proud? 

On a day well spent; it was paving the path that was lying ahead
And two tongues so tied, they loosened to learn one another with time
Look at us now, merely in sync
Living this easy I’m beginning to think 
We’re onto a good thing, maybe even the best 
Little did we know that we’d take a chance on a case of happenstance
 
Little did we know that we’d take a chance on a case of happenstance
