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 don't we take off alone
                            G       Em
Take a trip somewhere far, far away
                        Am         D7
We'll be together all alone again

Like we used to in the early days
E          D/F#  E/G# 
Well well, dar--ling

It's been too 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
Look out!

NOTE: "All through the taping of "Starting Over" I was calling
what I was doing 'Elvis Orbison': 'I want you I need only the
lonely'. I'm a born-again rocker, I feel that refreshed, and
I'm going right back to my roots... So I go back to the records
I know - Elvis and Roy Orbison and Gene Vincent and Jerry Lee
Lewis." (John Lennon, 1980)
