When does life begin?
Not the day you're born,
Not the day you learn to walk
Or start in with your baby talk!
Though you have a heart,
You won't know it's beating
Until that certain meeting
With that certain someone!

Life begins when you're in love,
You have the world before you.
When you've found the one,
The only one to love and adore you,
Is when you learn to sigh a bit,
To long a bit, to cry a bit.
Life begins when Cupid wins
And you're in love!

Oh, life begins when you're in love,
You'll have the world before you.
When you've found the one,
The only one to love and adore you,
Is when you learn to sigh a bit,
To long a bit, to cry a bit.
Life begins when Cupid wins
And you're in love!
