[Verse 1]
Mama moved out
Daddy sold the house
They split up the money
And went on their way
[Pre-Chorus]
And all the king's horses
And all the kings men
Couldn't put mama and daddy back together again
[Chorus]
Starting over again
Where should they begin
Because they've never been out on their own
Starting over again
Where do you begin
When your dreams are all shattered
And the kids are all grown
And the whole word cries
[Verse 2]
He got an apartment
She moved in with her sisters
He's scheming big deals with one of his friends
While she sits at home
Sorting out pieces
Of left over memories from thirty odd years
[Chorus]
Starting over again
Where should they begin
Because they've never been out on their own
Starting over again
Where do you begin
When your dreams are all shattered
And the kids are all grown
And the whole word cries
[Verse 3]
What will the neighbors say
They're talking talk, it's small town news
They're facing fifty years old, wrecking up a happy home
And this far down the road
You find yourself alone
Two fools
[Chorus]
Starting over again
Where should they begin
Because they've never been out on their own
Starting over again
Where do you begin
When your dreams are all shattered
And the kids are all grown
And the whole word cries
[Pre-Chorus]
And all the king's horses
And all the kings men
Couldn't put mama and daddy back together again
Mama moved out
Daddy sold the house
They split up the money
And went on their way
[Pre-Chorus]
And all the king's horses
And all the kings men
Couldn't put mama and daddy back together again
[Chorus]
Starting over again
Where should they begin
Because they've never been out on their own
Starting over again
Where do you begin
When your dreams are all shattered
And the kids are all grown
And the whole word cries
[Verse 2]
He got an apartment
She moved in with her sisters
He's scheming big deals with one of his friends
While she sits at home
Sorting out pieces
Of left over memories from thirty odd years
[Chorus]
Starting over again
Where should they begin
Because they've never been out on their own
Starting over again
Where do you begin
When your dreams are all shattered
And the kids are all grown
And the whole word cries
[Verse 3]
What will the neighbors say
They're talking talk, it's small town news
They're facing fifty years old, wrecking up a happy home
And this far down the road
You find yourself alone

[Chorus]
Starting over again
Where should they begin
Because they've never been out on their own
Starting over again
Where do you begin
When your dreams are all shattered
And the kids are all grown
And the whole word cries
[Pre-Chorus]
And all the king's horses
And all the kings men
Couldn't put mama and daddy back together again
