Starting Over Again

(album: Men'll Be Boys - 1994)

She put away her rings, gathered up her things
Dusted off her wings and said goodbye
She left without a care, left the walls so bare
With more than my fair share of tears to cry

Way down deep I'm wondering
What on earth went wrong
My world's not returning
So I must move on

Starting over again
New set of silverware, new set of friends
It's hard as hell if you don't know where to begin
Starting over again

Down at the grocery, lots of folds like me
Buy one, get one free, but it's all in vain
The only thing on sale is day old bread gone stale
And broken hearts that fail to play the game

Round and round in circles
It's an up hill climb
Step by step I'm learning
One day at a time

Starting over again
New set of silverware, new set of friends
It's hard as hell if you don't know where to begin
Starting over again

Damage that's been done, it's time to rise above
I've got to look ahead for the sake of love

Everybody's doing it, it must be some new rend
Starting over again
Starting over, again, again, over again...
