It took a hundred years
to make that old tree grow
And there beside that tree,
I learned to love you so
It took a hundred years of sunshine
before that old tree grew
But it only took a minute baby
to fall in love with you
It didn"t take a lifetime
to make my dreams come true
No - it only took a minute baby
to fall in love with you
It took a million stars
to make that starlight shine
And underneath those stars
one night I made you mine
It took a million stars a-twinkling
to light that sky of blue
But it only took a minute baby
to fall in love with you
Didn"t take a lifetime
to make my dreams come true
No - it only took a minute baby
to fall in love with you
Yeah - it only took a minute baby
to fall in love with you
to make that old tree grow
And there beside that tree,
I learned to love you so
It took a hundred years of sunshine
before that old tree grew
But it only took a minute baby
to fall in love with you
It didn"t take a lifetime
to make my dreams come true
No - it only took a minute baby
to fall in love with you
It took a million stars
to make that starlight shine
And underneath those stars
one night I made you mine
It took a million stars a-twinkling
to light that sky of blue
But it only took a minute baby
to fall in love with you
Didn"t take a lifetime
to make my dreams come true
No - it only took a minute baby
to fall in love with you
Yeah - it only took a minute baby
to fall in love with you
