Starting Again Composer(s): Marty Panzer Performer(s): Barry Manilow
And it started again And I meant every word And I liked what I said And I liked what I heard And I started to think I could think about starting again
We were laughing again Over memories and wine And the years in between Didn't seem a long time When I smiled she knew why In a while it was starting again
And I started to think I could feel again All the bad times seemed unreal When I looked in her eyes The cheating, the lies The things that were wrong seemed far behind
And I started to think I could care again And my fears all disappeared When she called me by name I knew that she'd changed The flaws were all gone The Saint remained
But it started again when I asked her to stay And she said, "There's this friend who's in town just today" And she really felt bad, but she had to be leaving again
And she left me again as she'd left me before Still pretending she cared when we kissed at the door But I saw in her eyes that the lies were all starting again
Just when I started to feel again When all the bad times seemed unreal When it all seemed so right and I thought that tonight If she said she cared, she really might
Just when my fears disappeared again And I heard what I wanted to hear It all started again And I knew what that meant It wasn't the start It was really the end
