Refrain

Hmmm...
Getting started, getting started,
Getting started with the one you love,
Hand in hand with God above,
Life together’s always getting started.

Verses

1
Getting started is exciting,
When you are newly wed.
Blissful and euphoric
When all is done and said!

2
Then when children start appearing
You have to start again.
With all the joys of family life
A new style must begin.

3
When the kids begin their schooling
You’ll face another start:
They go out into the world,
And with them goes your heart.

4
There’s a new start when they’re teen-aged
And growing strong and tall.
They may think they don’t need you,
But you’re giving them your all.

5
When at length your children move out,
Your house has peace within.
As it was so long ago,
You’re a couple once again.

6
Even growing old together
Is just another start.
Love is truly never ending
When you share one heart.
