About A Quarter To Nine

Life begins when somebody's eyes look into your own
Life begins when you get your girl 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 gonna tenderly twine
Around you, around a quarter to nine

I know I won't be late 'cause at half past eight
I'm gonna hurry there
I'll be waiting where the lane begins
Waiting for you on needles and pins
And then the world is gonna 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 gonna hurry there
I'll be waiting where the lane begins
Waiting for you on needles and pins
And then the world is gonna be mine
Mine, all mine
This evening, about a quarter to nine
