Begin Again

Take a deep breath in the mirror

He didn't like it when I wore high heels

But I do

Turn the lock and put my headphones on

He always said he didn't get this song

But I do I do

I walked in expecting you'd be late

But you got here early and you stand and wave

I walk to you

You pull my chair out and help me in

And you don't know how nice that is

But I do

And you throw your head back laughing

Like a little kid

I think it's strange that you think I'm funny

Cause he never did

And I've been spending the last 8 months

Thinking all love ever does is

Break and burn and end

But on a Wednesday in a cafe

I watched it begin again

You say you never met one girl who

Had as many James Taylor records as you

But I do

We tell stories and you don't know why

I'm coming off a little shy

But I do

But you throw your head back laughing

Like a little kid

I think it's strange that you think I'm funny

Cause he never did

And I've been spending the last 8 months

Thinking all love ever does is

Break and burn and end

But on a Wednesday in a cafe

I watched it begin again

And we walk down the block to my car

I almost brought him up

But you start to talk about the movies

That your family watches

Every single Christmas

And I want to talk about that

For the first time

What's past is past

Cause you throw your head back laughing

Like a little kid

I think it's strange that you think I'm funny

Cause he never did

And I've been spending the last 8 months

Thinking all love ever does is

Break and burn and end

But on a Wednesday in a cafe

I watched it begin again

But on a Wednesday in a cafe

I watched it begin again
