Start Again
Astoria Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can you tell im walking?
Around the streets, and cars
Cold winds dont stop all night again
Is it time for answers
Down and going outward
The look on your face would be nice
To see you smile again
No I've never seen your face
But I know this love will last
So start again
The song we'll sing forever
The one we'll fall in love to
Don't worry about the words
They will come in time to you
The phone that wont stop ringing
The bass that wont stop pounding
These memories will fade
With the new day ahead of me
Can you scream can you hear?
Dear I'll go and keep you near
Baby I know this love will last
So start again
