Happenstance |
| We built this thing from the ground up, babe |
| Doesn’t that make you proud |
| We stand back and stare with dropped jaws at all we have made |
| Started out on a Tuesday, Wednesday |
| Leaning against my car |
| Radio on, passenger door ajar |
| I tried to gather whether somebody else had your heart; |
| would I dare to take a |
| stab in the dark |
| Little did I know though, know though |
| What had begun occurring under my nose |
| Little did I know that I’d be sleeping under your covers through the whole year, |
| honey |
| Actor and an actress; |
| I was playing a role so real |
| Caught you off guard, contemplate how to feel |
| I’m thinking we put it down to time and place and event |
| Name our behaviour as irrelevant |
| But a day well spent was paving the path that was lying ahead |
| And two tongues so tied, they loosened to learn one another with time |
| For here we are in the summer’s heat, Brunswick St |
| Love far from turning sour |
| Headed for breakfast at some ungodly hour |
| And while I live in your pockets, you inhabit my plans |
| I guess my waist remains a good resting place for your hands |
| Boy in your mind did you know it then |
| One night with me would turn into a whole weekend, and then some |
| Didn’t foresee it, thought you were out of my league |
| Who knew your hazardous gaze would amplify your prestige |
| On a day well spent; |
| it was paving the path that was lying ahead |
| And two tongues so tied, they loosened to learn one another with time |
| Look at us now, merely in sync |
| Living this easy I’m beginning to think |
| We’re onto a good thing, maybe even the best |
| Little did we know that we’d take a chance on a case of happenstance |
| I wonder when you play it in reverse |
| Do you find the thought oh so comical it hurts |
| The people we are now once never could have known how |
| We built this thing from the ground up, babe |
| And doesn’t that make you proud |
| 'Cause a day well spent was paving the path that was lying ahead |
| And two eyes so bright would haunt you 'til you saw them at the end of every |
| night |
| Look at us now, merely in sync |
| Living this easy I’m beginning to think |
| We’re onto a good thing, maybe even the best |
| Little did we know that we’d take a chance on a case of happenstance |
