the start of the beginning

lyrics

me
on the train one day
you wouldn't look my way
but then you finally did and then you didn't look away

you
going through your change
and you were changing trains
so then we joined the cue and me and you made our exchange

everything just started spinning
and my number started winning
like the saints all started sinning
at the start of the beginning

then
blending with the crowd
the train was hot and loud
you asked me what was next and so i guess we hit the town

we
drank a lot of wine
and it was argentine
and in the tango that we danced i knew the chance was mine

everything just started spinning
and my number started winning
like the saints all started sinning
at the start of the beginning

bye
good luck all you songs
you made me big and strong
maybe someday someone will come and want to play along
