You were the one I would''ve stayed with, yeah
I would''ve spent a thousand days with, baby
But you were determined to keep me from loving you

We could be startin'' somethin''
I should be holdin'' you right now
We could be startin'' somethin''
Love we shouldn''t be without
But if we started somethin'' (but if we started somethin'', babe)
I''d only have to go
''Cause I would want this more than just tomorrow

Ooh, ooh, ooh

While my feelings were growing stronger (stronger)
You didn''t want this any longer
That''s when I realised you were leaving me behind

We could be startin'' somethin''
I should be holdin'' you right now
We could be startin'' somethin''
A love we shouldn''t be without
But if we started somethin'' (but if we started somethin'', babe)
I''d only have to go
''Cause I would want this more than just tomorrow

(I''d be there for you)
But if you opened your heart and gave love a chance
(We still could be)
Startin'' somethin'' bigger than you and me

I''m still determined to show you what our love could do (we should be startin'' somethin'')

We could be startin'' somethin'' (startin'' out)
I should be holdin'' you right now
We could be startin'' somethin'' (startin'' out)
A love we shouldn''t be without
But if we started somethin'' (but if we started somethin'', babe)
I''d only have to go
''Cause I would want this more than just tomorrow

We could be startin'' somethin (startin'' out)
Be startin'' somethin'', babe
We could be startin'' somethin (startin'' out)
Be startin'' somethin'', babe
We could be startin'' somethin (startin'' out)
We could be startin'' somethin''
We could be startin'' somethin (startin'' out)
