STARTING ALL OVER AGAIN

 

I’m starting all over again

And this one’s a tough one to take

As sure as I was that I’d figured it out 

There were more wrong decisions to make

 

So I took it all down to the studs

And I cursed every stroke of the pen

I knew it was time and it had to be done

Starting all over again

 

Phases and stages and unwritten pages

A world coming undone

The circular motion through doubt and devotion

Brought me to where I’d begun

All the way back to square one

 

Now, to screw it all up — well, that’s human

To let it all go is divine

Lucky for me that I’ve been here before  

Let’s try this again one more time

 

I fixed everything I could fix

I called on a forgotten friend

And I’m coming to you with my hat in my hand

Starting all over again

 

Phases and stages and unwritten pages

A world coming undone

The circular motion through doubt and devotion

Brought me to where I’d begun

All the way back to square one

    

Through the phases and stages and unwritten pages

A world that’s coming undone

The circular motion through doubt and devotion

Brought me to where I’d begun

All the way back to square one
