We've only just begun, to live,

White lace an' promises,

A kiss for luck an' we're on our way . . .



( We've only just begun! )



Before the rising sun, we fly,

So many roads to choose,

We start out walkin' an' learn to run . . .

An' yes, we've just begun . . .



Sharin' horizons that are new to us,

Watchin' the signs along the way,

Talkin' it over, just the two of us,

Workin' together day to day . . .



Together . . . ( Together! )



An' when the evening comes, we smile,

So much of life ahead,

We'll find a place where there's room to grow . . .

We've only just begun ( . . . just begun! )

We've only just begun ( We've only just begun! )



Sharin' horizons that are new to us,

Watchin' the signs along the way,

Talkin' it over, just the two of us,

Workin' together day to day . . .



Together . . . ( Together! )



An' when the evening comes, we smile,

So much of life ahead,

We'll find a place where there's room to grow . . .

We've only just begun ( . . . just begun! )

We've only just begun ( We've only just begun! )



We've only just begun . . .
