This could be the start of some- thing, this could be the start of some -thing fine!-

You're doing your income tax, or buyin' a toothbrush, or hurrying home because the hour is late,

You're havin' a snowball fight or pickin' up daisies, you're singing a happy tune or knockin' on wood,
When all of a sudden you look up and there's someone new, oh this could be the start of something good.
Your destined lover you'll discover in fright'ning flash, so keep your heart awake both night and day

Just tonight I stood be- fore the ta-vem, noth- ing seemed the way it used to
Through the door there came fam- i- liar laugh- ter, be
I saw your face and heard you call my name

mem-ber how we laughed a - way the hours, and dreamed of the great things that we would do.
if by chance I'd see you in the ta- vem, we'd smile at one - an - oth - er and we'd say
in the glass I saw a strange re- flec-tion, was that lone - ly fel- low real - ly me?
oh my friends we're old - er but no wis - er, for in our hearts the dreams are till the
same,

niose were the days, my friend, we thought they'd never end, we'd sing and dance for-
