Lately, lately we haven't been at our best And maybe, maybe we had it comin' for a long time Everybody hopes that life is like a dancer's pirouette With grace we've dodged each conflict and decision that we've met Everybody tells themselves that they m ust be justified They do what they do because they're trying to get by Maybe, maybe we are all selfish But maybe, maybe it isn't over yet Everybody hopes that love is like a prairie fire That sweeps across the field, consumin' it all That love will never fade or flicker As pure as the air we breath We've made mistakes that we can't change But there's still time to start again There's still time to start again [x27]
