What a place to begin a love affair
In a gathering of friends, a love affair
You in your Levi's and I in my hair
Here we are in a love affair, love affair

One more kiss would be out of place
We could miss and get hung up in a race
You with your future and I with my past
Could we last in a love affair, love affair?

We're still kids to the world of the old, don't you know? (Don't you know?)
Dreams we're living they never will know
We're full-grown to the world of the young
But it is all just an illusion
Someday they will look on

To the joy of a love affair, love affair
All the memories we've known, gladly shared
You with your gentleness and I with my prayer
To the life of a love affair, love affair

We're still kids to the world of the old, don't you know? (Don't you know?)
Dreams we're living they never will know
We're full-grown to the world of the young
But it is all just an illusion
Someday they will look on

To the place that begins a love affair
In a gathering of friends, a love affair
They in their stockings and they in our shoes
Couldn't lose in a love affair, love affair
