This Could Be The Start Of Something Big
Steve Eydie Lyrics

You're walking along the street, or you're at a party
You might be strolling on the road or attending a gathering.

Or else you're alone and then you suddenly dig
It could very well be that you are by yourself but all of a sudden something excites you.

You're looking in someone's eyes
You are staring deep into the eyes of another person.

You suddenly realize
All of a sudden you comprehend.

That this could be the start of something big
The realization dawns upon you that this could be the inception of something truly amazing.

You're lunching at "21", you're watching your diet
You might be eating your meal at the exclusive restaurant '21', and keeping a check on your food intake.

Declining a charlotte russe, accepting a fig
You're probably rejecting sweet cream dessert named charlotte russe, and choosing to eat a fig instead.

When out of a clear blue sky
All of a sudden without any warning.

It's suddenly gal and guy
You find yourself amongst a couple.

And this could be the start of something big
You get a feeling that this could just be the start of something truly great.

There's no controlling the unrolling of your fate, my friend
One cannot be in control of their destiny.

Who knows what's written in the magic book
Anything possible can be written in the 'magic book' of destiny.

But when a lover you discover at the gate, my friend
Incredible things can happen when you encounter love at first sight.

Invite her in without a second look
Do not hesitate to welcome them in with open arms.

You're up in an aeroplane or dining at Sardi's
You could either be flying in an airplane or being served food at a restaurant named Sardi's.

Or lying at Malibu, alone on the sand
Or you could be solitary and relaxing on the sandy beaches of Malibu.

You suddenly hear a bell
All of a sudden you hear a distinct sound.

And right away you can tell
You instantly know.

That this could be the start of something grand
You comprehend that this moment could herald the beginning of something grand.

This could be the start of something very big
This could actually be the commencement of something grand and substantial.

Why don't you play your part
You should contribute with all you've got.

Please give your heart to me, and see
Offer me your heart and witness.

This could be the start of something wonderful
This instant marks the possible onset of something fantastic.

Why don't you take a chance
You should take a risk and see where it takes you.

And try romance with me, and see
We should try to engage in a relationship and gauge its outcome.

You're watching the sun come up or counting your money
You might be watching the sun rise or contemplating your finances.

Or else in a dim cafe, you're ordering wine
Otherwise you're asking for wine in a not-so-bright cafe.

Then suddenly there he is
All of a sudden you see a male person.

And you want to be where he is
You feel a deep desire to be with him.

And this must be the start of something
This particular instance seems like the onset of something great.

This could be the heart of something
This could most certainly be the pivotal moment for something.

This could be the start of something... big!
This could definitely be the introduction of something monumental.
