Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This one's for Gene and Eddie and Elvis
And Buddy
[Verse 2]
Our life together is so precious together
We have grown, we have grown
[Verse 3]
Although our love is still special
Let's take a chance and fly away somewhere alone
[Verse 4]
It's been too long since we took the time
No one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
Every day we used to make it love
Why can't we be making love, nice and easy?
[Verse 7]
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
[Verse 8]
Why don't we take off alone?
Take a trip somewhere far, far away
We'll be together, all alone again
Like we used to in the early days
[Verse 9]
Well, well, darling
It's been too long since we took the time
No one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly
[Verse 10]
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
[Verse 11]
Look out
Our life together is so precious together
We have grown, we have grown
[Verse 12]
Although our love is still special
Let's take a chance and fly away somewhere
[Verse 13]
Starting over
Starting over
Over and over
[Verse 14]
Starting over
Starting over
Over and over
Over and over, babe, babe, baby
