lyrics

Starting Over

Two years ago
I thought I’d settle down
but instead
I had a nervous breakdown

I had moved back home
with my family
but Northern Virginia
wasn’t my scene

So I’s about to leave
when I met a lady
she really loved me
’til I went crazy

love moved too fast
for my emotions
lesson learned
I’m starting over again

I’m starting over, making a new life
I found my place, I am taking a stand
gonna grow my roots I am a new man

technically
she was still married
she was getting a divorce
but it still bothered me

we broke up
and it broke my heart and my head
so I packed my van
and I headed back west

To California
where the weather is great
the sun is shining
almost everyday [in this golden state]

Losing that girl
taught me how to be a man
lesson learned
I’m starting over again

I’m starting over, making a new life
I found my place, I am taking a stand
gonna grow my roots I am a new man

I miss people
and places from my past
their memory’s in my heart
where they will last

Sometimes I think
I’m running out of time,
I bought groceries
with my last dime

but at least I've got
this gold sunshine
everyday here feels like
summertime

Now I know
the place to be is where I am
lesson learned
I’m starting over again

I’m starting over, making a new life
I found my place, I am taking a stand
gonna grow my roots I am a new man
