[Verse 1]
It's winter time in the middle of the spring
I can't believe it, loneliness is calling me
And I can hear it
See, I never thought I'd feel this way so soon, no
There is something that I know I have to do

[Chorus]
Start again
And this time I'll make it better than before
I start again
For the second time around, I'll do much more, yeah
'Cause I refuse to let life end
I'll pick the pieces up and start again, yeah

[Verse 2]
Other roads, yeah
Oh, this time I must be careful when I choose them
See, love was for the taking but I refused it
And I never thought it'd cut so deep inside me, oh no
There is something that I know I have to do

[Chorus]
I start again
And this time I'll make it better than before, yeah
Start again
For the second time around, I'll do much more, yeah
'Cause I refuse to let life end
I'll pick the pieces up and start again

[Bridge]
I can't seem to think of nothing better I can do

[Chorus]
But start again
And this time I'll make it better than before, yeah
Start again
For the second time around, I'll do much more, yeah
'Cause I refuse to let life end
I'll pick the pieces up and start again
Oh, this time I'll make it better than before, yeah
I'll start again
For the second time around, I'll do much more, ooh yeah
'Cause I refuse to let life end
I'll pick the pieces up and start again
