Starting Over Again

Momma moved out, daddy sold the house

They split up the money, and went on their way

And all the king's horses, and all the king's men

Couldn't put mommy and daddy back together again

Starting over again, where should they begin?

'Cause they've never been out on their own

Starting over again, where do you begin?

When your dreams are all shattered, and the kids are all grown

And the whole world cries

Got an apartment, she moved in with her sisters

He's scheming big deals with one of his friends

While she sits at home, just sorting out pieces

Of leftover memories from thirty-odd years

Starting over again, where do you begin?

You've never been out on your own

Starting over again, never any end

What will the neighbors say?

They're talking talk, it's small-town news

Facing fifty years old, making up a happy home

And this far down the road, you find yourself alone

Two fools

Starting over again, now where do you begin?

When you've never been out on your own

Starting over again, never any end

When your dreams are all shattered, and the kids are all grown

And all the king's horses, and all the king's men

Could never put mommy and daddy back together

Back together again
