Lyrics
Let’s Start Something Together
Bruce Bergh
My status may not be stellar
I may not have the bank account of Rockafeller
But I’ve got potential and that’s essential to love you.
I may not be stalked by paparazzi,
Have a sculpted body, or wear Armani
But I’m warm and gentle and consequentially love you
Nice things are fine to style a man, but, things are only things.
When it comes to dealings of the heart, Love is what I bring
I may not have a villa across the ocean
But I offer you love and devotion
Honey, take my hand and let’s start living
Baby, you are my Thanksgiving
Come with me and let’s start something together
