Lyrics

[Verse 1] When I see those big brown eyes That's when I take my cue It don't take me but a few minutes To get a message through I talked to you and you talked to me And we talked to one another [Chorus] It don't take us but a few minutes To understand each other [Verse 2] If I was twenty-three years old And you were twenty-two I bet no one would try to run Our life the way they do We take a chance and try romance Be true to one another [Chorus] It don't take us but a few minutes When we want each other [Verse 3] If I was in San Diego And you were in Portland, Maine I'd fly to you lock, stock and bond In hail, fog or rain Over the mountains, through the valley Coming home to each other [Chorus] It don't take us but a few minutes To get to one another [Verse 4] You would write a love song And play on my guitar And if you should, in Hollywood Become a movie star Would you let your heart forget I loved you and you only [Chorus] It don't take but a few minutes When you're feeling lonely [Verse 1] When I saw those big brown eyes That's when I took my cue It didn't take me but a few minutes To get a message through I talked to her and she talked to me And we talked to one another [Chorus] It don't take us but a few minutes To understand each other
