Could We Start Again Please

Everything was going so well and all just seemed so right
Oh the stories you would tell I could listen to them all night
But your point was received and maybe even a little too much
And yet in You I have never disagreed and believe it is all such

Everyday was in Your Name every word in Your Way
Yet that things aren't the same was so unexpected today
So different from back then I don't know what I should do
Could we start over again, please could I start over with You

I never knew such joy before but I think it is going wrong
And I don't know what is in store not being that strong
Could we start over again, could I please start over with You
Could we just go back to when everything was still all new

So before it gets too frightening I need to call it to a halt 
With so much enlightening I know see my every fault 
Could we start over again, could I please start over with You
Could we just go back to when everything was still brand new

Check out my piece Half Way There. I think you'd like the second half; reminds me a bit of this piece.
