‘New Beginnings’ is surely an appropriate theme for Song Lyric Sunday on New Year’s Day and this is a song worth listening to any day of the year.
Yes, this is about new beginnings, but it’s also about continuity and that’s equally important.
“(Just Like) Starting Over”
Our life together is so precious together,
We have grown – we have grown,
Although our love is still special,
Let’s take our chance and fly away somewhere alone,
We have grown – we have grown,
Although our love is still special,
Let’s take our chance and fly away somewhere alone,
It’s been so long since we took the time,
No-one’s to blame,
I know time flies so quickly,
But when I see you darling,
It’s like we both are falling in love again,
It’ll be just like starting over – starting over,
I know time flies so quickly,
But when I see you darling,
It’s like we both are falling in love again,
It’ll be just like starting over – starting over,
Everyday we used to make it love,
Why can’t we be making love nice and easy,
It’s time to spread our wings and fly,
Don’t let another day go by my love,
It’ll be just like starting over – starting over,
Why can’t we be making love nice and easy,
It’s time to spread our wings and fly,
Don’t let another day go by my love,
It’ll be just like starting over – starting over,
Why don’t we take off alone,
Take a trip somewhere far, far away,
We’ll be together all alone again,
Like we used to in the early days,
Well, well, darling,It’s been so long since we took the time,
No-one’s to blame,
Take a trip somewhere far, far away,
We’ll be together all alone again,
Like we used to in the early days,
Well, well, darling,It’s been so long since we took the time,
No-one’s to blame,
I know time flies so quickly,
But when I see you darling,
It’s like we both are falling in love again,
It’ll be just like starting over – starting over,Our life together is so precious together,
We have grown – we have grown,
Although our love is still special,
Let’s take a chance and fly away somewhere alone.
But when I see you darling,
It’s like we both are falling in love again,
It’ll be just like starting over – starting over,Our life together is so precious together,
We have grown – we have grown,
Although our love is still special,
Let’s take a chance and fly away somewhere alone.

Song Lyric Sunday
the only deadhead in the hameau 
We are better able to face whatever life might throw at us when we know we have the option of starting over if necessary. Good choice with this one.
I’ve started over a few times in my life and while it’s hard to let the past go, it’s refreshing to know that we can start over – we can begin again with each new day. Great choice! Thanks so much for sharing it!
Excellent choice 🙂
Fantastic song great choice!
