Lyrics
0:31It's just a theory
0:34There's a possibility I am wrong
0:42It's just a theory
0:45But I would stake my life
0:47Lay my money down
0:53That you were meant for me
0:56And for you I'm the one
1:01It's just a theory
1:07A particular set of assumptions
1:14It's just a theory
1:17An educated guess
1:18A conclusion not forgone
1:25That you were meant for me
1:28And for you I'm the one
1:36Oh nothing's new under the sun
1:38I will postulate
1:39Ask for your consideration
1:42Ask you out on a date
1:46Although it can't be sure
1:48Why not act on a hunch
1:51Oh why not search for proof
1:54Why not go out for lunch
1:56And in theory I could propose
2:02And in theory you could affirm
2:07Oh that you were meant for me
2:10And for you I'm the one
2:18Oh that you were meant for me
2:20And for you I'm the one
2:28It's just a theory
2:31A series of tests should be run
2:38It's just a theory although not fully assessed
2:42An idea whose time has come
2:50That you were meant for me
2:52And for you I'm the one
3:00That you were meant for me
3:03And for you I'm the one
It's just a theory There's a possibility I am wrong It's just a theory But I would stake my life Lay my money down That you were meant for me And for you I'm the one It's just a theory A particular set of assumptions It's just a theory An educated guess A conclusion not forgone That you were meant for me And for you I'm the one Oh nothing's new under the sun I will postulate Ask for your consideration Ask you out on a date Although it can't be sure Why not act on a hunch Oh why not search for proof Why not go out for lunch And in theory I could propose And in theory you could affirm Oh that you were meant for me And for you I'm the one Oh that you were meant for me And for you I'm the one It's just a theory A series of tests should be run It's just a theory although not fully assessed An idea whose time has come That you were meant for me And for you I'm the one That you were meant for me And for you I'm the one
