This Could Be The Start Of Something Big

This Could Be The Start Of Something Big（Live At The Crescendo）- Ella Fitzgerald

You're walkin' along the street,

Or you're at a party

Or else you're alone and then you suddenly dig

You're looking' in someone's eyes,

You suddenly realize

That this could be the start of something big

You're lunching at Twenty-One and watchin' your diet

Declining a charlotte russe,

Accepting a fig

When out of a clear blue sky,

It's suddenly gal and guy

And this could be the start of something big

There's no controlling

The unrolling of your fate, my friend

Who knows what's written in the magic book

But when a lover you discover at the gate my friend

Invite her in without a second look

You're up in an aeroplane or dining at Sardi's

Or lying at Malibu alone on the sand

When You hear a bell,

And right away you can tell

That this could be the start of something grand.

You're walkin' along the street,

Or you're at a party,

Or else you're alone and then you suddenly dig,

You're looking' in someone's eyes,

You suddenly realize

That this could be the start of something big

You're lunching at Twenty-One and watchin' your diet,

Declining a charlotte russe,

Accepting a fig,

When out of a clear blue sky,

It's suddenly gal and guy,

And this could be the start of something big

There's no controlling the unrolling of your fate,

My friend,

Who knows what's written in the magic book.

But when a lover you discover at the gate my friend,

Invite her in without a second look

You're up in an aeroplane or dining at Sardi's,

Or lying at Malibu alone on the sand,

Then suddenly there he is,

And you wanna be where he is,

And this must be the start of something...

This could be the heart of something...

This could be the start of something big
