start a new song

yeah she's more than a memory
and he may be better as one
but that doesn't help them move along


can't say they're doing fine
everyone needs to leave the past behind
stop singing the blues, start a new song

that's not easy for anyone to do
either goin back home alone
or trying to find somebody new
in the city, in the mountains
in the desert or on the plains
on the corner or the circle
finding a way to redeem the pains

hope springs from eternity
not from days we can count
in the future, present or past
can't keep holding on to wrong
when it's right to do without
and treasure the One Love that lasts

yeah she's more than a memory
and he may be better as one
but that doesn't help them move along

can't say they're doing fine
everyone needs to leave the past behind
