Start Again Lyrics
Sam Tsui
Lyrics
Baby it breaks my heart
that you don't smile anymore
I'm dying to help you heal
but you won't unlock your door
You say it takes time,
but you don't have to spend it alone
You're stuck in a memory
that you're desperate to rewind
You're too busy looking back
cause' you won't make another try
Now your trust is gone
But you won't find it again on your own
So don't go telling me it's too late to start
You're still holding a broken heart
But if you let me in
Maybe you can start again
And don't go telling me there's no second chance
You'll understand when you' take my hand
Baby let me in
I promise we will start again
I'm trying to get to you
So I make these promises
I swear they're unbreakable
But you're still just hearing his
He won't let you go
Til you decide that you want to be free
You're haunted by yesterday
And you're still sore from the fall
All you need is to whitewash these old walls
We'll paint something new
If you let yourself listen to me
So don't go telling me it's too late to start
You're still holding a broken heart
But if you let me in
Maybe you can start again
And don't go telling me there's no second chance
You'll understand when you' take my hand
Baby let me in
I promise we will start again
Don't give up yet
I won't let you close the curtain too soon
We can reset
If you take the leap and let me show you
You just gotta make the choice (Yeah)
We love we lose
And you think the best defense is distance
Tune the world out
Put it all on mute so you can't listen
But there's no way out of here, just follow my voice...
So don't go telling me it's too late to start
You're still holding a broken heart
But if you let me in... Yeah...
So don't go telling me it's too late to start
You're still holding a broken heart (a broken heart)
But if you let me in (let me in)
Maybe you can start again (Baby you can start again)
And don't go telling me there's no second chance
You'll understand (You'll understand) when you' take my
hand (take my hand)
Baby let me in
I promise we will start again (I promise we will start again)
So don't go telling me it's too late to start
You're still holding a broken heart
But if you let me in
Maybe you can start again
