Start Over Again Lyrics

Emily Maguire Start Over Again

[E. Maguire]
Caught in the muddy waters, falling down
If I could breathe then I would drown
I’m fifteen, I feel older than God
I got dreams and a hole in my heart
And he said
Go slow, be kind, be wise
Start over again
Out of the muddy waters, I come round
I said I’m off to London town
My love is strong, the years roll by
But now it’s gone in the blink of an eye
And he said
Go slow, you need time, be wise
Start over again
Thrown in the muddy waters, I come down
And you were waiting there on the ground
And then you put your hand in mine
You put your heart on the line
And you said
We’ll go slow, you need time, be mine
And start over again
So pour on the muddy waters, I won’t drown
I’ll be walking a hilltop town
And I will make the most of time
And someday to a child of mine
Well I’ll say
Go slow, be kind, be wise
Start over again, just start over again
