If/Then - Always Starting Over Lyrics



If/Then - Always Starting Over Lyrics




In my life, I never thought I'd get a second chance
I thought I was done, then I met you
And though I never dreamed I could learn how to love again
I placed my bet and you came through
I somehow still lost, I somehow always do
This time feels new

Thank you for finding me
And thank you for the care
And f*ck you for making me think that this life might be fair
You promised to love me
A promise you kept
And I won't be sorry that you said to leap and I leapt
I won't regret what I did then
Though it hurts more than I could imagine back when
All the same, even so, I would love you all over again

(Chorus)
Am I always starting over in a brand new story
Am I always back at one after all I've done
'Cause I burned all my bridges
And learned every last lesson too
So how can I start new

I love our children, both fiercely and well
When they ask about you
Well, Lordy, the stories I'll tell
And I won't regret the lives I didn't lead
I knew you, I loved you
Let that be all that I need
Say that it's fate, say it's foretold
I'm through with fighting and I'm much too old
What the gods have to give I'll take and I'll live and be bold

(Chorus)
If we're always starting over every brand-new morning
Then we're always starting out with the end in doubt
We can leave a life for tomorrow
Or grieve all that we thought we'd do
Or make each moment new

(Bridge)
All that has happened is happening now
All that might happen is here somehow
All of the choices that made me me
All of the accidents yet to be
All that's ahead and all that's behind
It's all in the moment I make up my mind
And open my heart, I'm scarred, and start

(Chorus)
'Cause we're always starting over every life we're living
Yes we're always just awake every step we take
And, my love, our life is over but love, I'll make one last vow
To start over and over and over somehow
My new life starts right now
