Start All Over
Miley Cyrus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I have to wonder if this wave's too big to ride
Commit or not commit in such a crazy tide
It's sooner than I thought but you called me out
I've lost control and there's no doubt
I'm gonna start all over

Out of the fire and into the fire again
You make me want to forget
And start all over
Here it comes straight out of my mind or worse
Another chance to get burned
And start all over
I'm gonna start all over

Fantastic and romantic all a big surprise
You've got the warning hesitation pushed aside
It's sooner than I want but you caught my heart
I guess I'm ready now to start
I'm gonna start all over

Out of the fire and into the fire again
You make me want to forget
And start all over
Here it comes straight out of my mind or worse
Another chance to get burned
And start all over
I'm gonna start all over

It's so easy
You disrupt me
Can't complain

It's so easy
You disrupt me
Can't complain

It's so easy
You disrupt me
Can't complain

It's so easy
I'm gonna start all over
Start all over

Out of the fire and into the fire again
You make me want to forget
And start all over
Here it comes straight out of my mind or worse
Another chance to get burned
And start all over

Out of the fire and into the fire again
You make me want to forget
And start all over
Here it comes straight out of my mind or worse
Another chance to get burned




And start all over
I'm gonna start all over

This is full of shit with electric guitar

@barbievale

@@jupsilvam Go back to middle school. This IS Pop/Rock. Great vocals, basic guitar but perfectly executed, awesome drums, good lyrics. Miss me with that! Your kind deserve to be stuck at 2005.
