About a Quarter to Nine - Al Jolson

Life begins when somebody’s eyes look into your own

Life begins when you get your gal all alone

From morning until twilight

I don’t know I’m alive

But I know love begins at 8:45

The stars are gonna twinkle and shine

How they’ll shine!

This evening about a quarter to nine

My loving arms are going to tenderly twine

Around you around a quarter to nine

I know I won’t be late

Cause at half past eight

I’m going to hurry there

I’I’ll be waiting where the lane begins

Waiting for you on needles and pins

And then the world is going to be mine

Mine all mine!

This evening about a quarter to nine

I know I won’t be late

Cause at half past eight

I’m going to hurry there

I’ll be waiting where the lane begins

Waiting for you on needles and pins

And then the world is going to be mine

Mine all mine!

This evening about a quarter to nine
