Pretending that we'll meet
Each time I turn a corner, I walk a little faster
Pretending life is sweet
'Cause love's around the corner, I walk a little faster

Can't begin to see my future shine as yet
No sign as yet, you're mine as [bad word] to a face I can't define as yet
Keep bumping into walls and taking lots of falls

And even though I meet 'round each and every corner
With nothing but disaster

I set my chin a little higher, I hope a little longer
Build a little stronger castle in the air
And thinking you'll be there, I walk a little faster

Can't begin to see my future shine as yet
No sign as yet, you're mine as [bad word] to a face I can't define as yet
Keep bumping into walls and taking lots of falls

And even though I meet 'round each and every corner
With nothing but disaster

I set my chin a little higher and I hope a little longer
I build a little stronger castle in the air
And thinking you'll be there, I walk a little faster
