Lyrics: Emily Maguire. Believer. Start Over Again.


[E. Maguire]

Caught in the muddy waters, falling down
If I could breathe then I would drown
I?m fifteen, I feel older than God
I got dreams and a hole in my heart

And he said
Go slow, be kind, be wise
Start over again

Out of the muddy waters, I come round
I said I?m off to London town
My love is strong, the years roll by
But now it?s gone in the blink of an eye

And he said
Go slow, you need time, be wise
Start over again

Thrown in the muddy waters, I come down
And you were waiting there on the ground
And then you put your hand in mine
You put your heart on the line

And you said
We?ll go slow, you need time, be mine
And start over again

So pour on the muddy waters, I won?t drown
I?ll be walking a hilltop town
And I will make the most of time
And someday to a child of mine

Well I?ll say
Go slow, be kind, be wise
Start over again, just start over again
Emily Maguire
