Life begins when somebody's eyes look into your own. Life begins when you get your gal all alone. From morning until twilight I don't know I'm alive But I know love begins at 8:45. The stars are gonna twinkle and shine, How they'll shine! This evening about a quarter to nine. My loving arms are going to tenderly twine Around you around a quarter to nine. I know I won't be late Cause at half past eight, I'm going to hurry there. I, I'll be waiting where the lane begins Waiting for you on needles and pins. And then the world is going to be mine Mine all mine! This evening about a quarter to nine. I know I won't be late Cause at half past eight I'm going to hurry there. I'll be waiting where the lane begins Waiting for you on needles and pins. And then the world is going to be mine Mine all mine! This evening about a quarter to nine.
