This Could Be the Start of Something Good - Buddy Greco

You’re walkin' 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

That this could be the start of something big

You’re lunching at twenty-one and watchin' your diet

Declining a Charlotte Russe, 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

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

This could be the start of something very big

Why don’t you play your part?

Please give your heart to me and see

This could be the start of something wonderful

Why don’t you take a chance?

Just try romance with me and see

Your watchin' the sun come up and countin' your money girl

Or else in a dim cafe you’re ordering wine

Then suddenly there he is and you wanna be where he is

And this must be the start of something

This could be the heart of something

This could be the start of something big
