It Starts Again

lyrics

From the blistering heat of worry
And the withering sun of doubt
Knowing you is shelter
Like a tree you shade me from myself
Oh honey you know what it’s all about

When it starts again
It starts again
I can’t name it, I can’t see it
But it hits me like a train
When It starts again
It starts again
Like something trying to escape me
Or find some way in

There’s an ache that doesn’t quit
Clinging tight to emptiness
And between cause and effect
You can dream up every kind of loneliness
But your love puts it all to the test

When it starts again
It starts again
I’ve been confusing right for wrong
I’ve been braiding love and fear
It starts again
It starts again
And until you came along
I just couldn't see it clear

Oh I want to be a better man
And I love this world ,
You know I do
I trusted you and you understand
Won't you let me do the same for you?

When it starts again
it starts again
Can you trust me with your sadness?
Do you know you've made a friend?
When it starts again
It starts again
Is it all to be repeated
Or somewhere to begin?
When it starts again
