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

This could be the start of something big

You´re lunching at Twenty-One and watching your diet
Declining a Charlotte Ruse, 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

Oh, 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

There´s no controlling the unrolling of your fate, my friend
Who knows what´s written in the 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
I said this could be the start of something
This could be the start of something grand
