Lyrics
Western Union, telegram for Mel Harden, sign here please
Hey Tim, this is from Barbra
Oh, what is she talking about now?
She said she still loves me, she can't do without me
And she'll be here tomorrow
What? I thought you had settled all of that man
Hey, man, you see, you just don't understand
I never stop loving her
I just wasn't ready to accept the love she was willing to give
But if she still loves me
There's nothing in the world that could keep us from making this time
Starting all over again is gonna be rough, so rough
But we're gonna make it, oh yeah
Starting all over as friends is gonna be tough on us
But we gotta face it
We lost what we had, that's what hurt us so bad (oh yeah)
It set us back a thousand years
But we're gonna make it up, though I know it's gonna be rough
To erase all the hurt and tears
Starting all over again is gonna be hard
But I pray that the Lord will help us make it, yeah
Starting all over again is gonna be slow
We, we both know that we can make it
We gotta take life as it comes
And never, never, never, fuss about who's right or wrong
It's an uphill climb (oh, yes, it is)
To the finish line
But we're gonna try
Just one more time
Starting all over again is gonna be rough for us
But we're gonna make it, yeah
Starting all over as friends is gonna be tough on us (on us)
But we gotta face it, yeah
Starting all over again is gonna be hard
With the help of the Lord, we're gonna make it (oh, yes we will, darlin')
Starting all over again is gonna be slow (baby, I know, I know, I know, I know)
But we both know that we can make it (oh, yes, we can)
Starting all over...
