About a Quarter to Nine

Dubin-Warren

Life begins when somebody's eyes look into your own

Life begins when you get your guy all alone

From morning until twilight, I don't know I'm alive

But I know, love begins at 8:45

Chorus:

The stars are gonna twinkle and shine

This evening about a quarter to nine

His lovin' arms (his lovin' arms)

Are gonna tenderly twine (are gonna tenderly twine)

Around me, 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

This evening 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

This evening, about a quarter to nine
