Turn Around And Start Again

(album: Cats - 1968)

So you say your world is falling down around your ears
Everything you've planned has gone astray through all the years
Lift your head my friend, try to see the other thing
Don't give up, just change direction
Turn around and start again

Was a time when I was down with not a penny to my name
And like you I was in mind to throw away my chance of fame
Dry your tears as I did then, disregard the falling rain
Don't give up, just change direction
Turn around and start again

Yes, for the world is full of people
With their hope and future gone
They were faced with your decision
To give up or to go on

So spend an hour in meditation, see the good things, not the bad
And you'll find that life has given you good reason to be glad
While the spark remains you must try and try again
Don't give up, just change direction
Turn around and start again

Yes, for the world is full of people
With their hope and future gone
They were faced with your decision
To give up or to go on

While the spark remains you must try and try again
Don't give up, just change direction
Turn around and start again
