Just an old song, but not huge hit, I was singing to myself this morning.


I've nothing much to offer.
There's nothing much to take.
I'm an absolute beginner,
and I'm absolutely sane.

As long as we're together,
The rest can go to hell.
I absolutely love you,
But we're absolute beginners
With eyes completely open,
But nervous just the same.

If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Could laugh at the oceans
Just like the films,
There's no reason
To feel all the hard times,
To lay down the hard lines.
It's absolutely true.

Nothing much could happen.
Nothing we can't shake.
Oh, we're absolute beginners
With nothing much at stake.

As long as you're still smiling,
There's nothing more I need.
I absolutely love you,
But we're absolute beginners;
But if my love is your love,
We're certain to succeed.

If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Could sail over heartaches
Just like the films,
There's no reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines.
It's absolutely true.

"Absolute Beginners" (1986)
