About a Quarter to Nine Songtext
von Wanda Richert

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 eight forty-five

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 be there
I′ll be waiting where the lane begins
Waiting for him 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 waitin' where the lane begins
Waitin' for him on needles and pins
And then the world is gonna be mine
This evening, around a quarter to
Nine
