Lyrics

One, two, three, four
I've nothing much to offer
There's nothing much to take
I'm an absolute beginner
But I'm absolutely sane
As long as we're together
The rest can go to hell
I absolutely love you
But we're absolute beginners
With our eyes completely open
But nervous all the same
If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Could sail over heartaches
Just like the films
There's no reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines
It's absolutely true
Nothing much can happen
Nothing we can't shake
Though we're absolute beginners
There's nothing much at stake
As long as you're still smiling
That's all I really need
I absolutely love you
Though we're absolute beginners
And if my love is your love
Yeah, we're certain to succeed
If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Can sail over heartaches
Just like the films
If there's reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines
It's absolutely true
