I like the way that you took advantage Stayed at my party 'til everyone went home A perfect stranger Need a place to lay your hat The lone ranger couldn't saddle me with that But you were right on track It's only the beginning But I've already gone and lost my mind I feel like making daisy chains And playing hide'n' seek When it's only the beginning The fairy dust is still in flight And this could be the love of a lifetime even if it lasts a week Or maybe just a daydream When we go walking along the river Watch the old men fishing the sunny side of the pier It's like a movie and you're my leading man The way you woo me just like Cary Grant You want to hold my hand It's only the beginning But I've already gone and lost my mind I feel like breaking window panes all up and down my street When it's only the beginning We can bring the house down every night And this could be the love of a lifetime even if it lasts a week Or just the sweetest daydream And do you ever feel the passion To jump from a speeding train I'd like to be the wheels beneath you I'd like to be the rain That could wash away your pain It's only So hold me closer Let me feel you sigh My Spanish butterfly It's only the beginning But I've already gone and lost my mind I feel like breaking window panes all up and down my street Any day now I will hear you call And this could be the love of a lifetime even if it lasts a week
