Meet Me At The Start

Rufus Wainwright

Meet me at the start
And we can start over
Meet me at the point
Where we lost the order of
Everything that's dear
Everything that's valuable
Staying home with books
Catching the little looks
Laughing at mediocre jokes
Someone has stuck a wrench
Between the spokes

Meet me at the start
And we can start over
It's so plain to see
We should be together
Even though it's hard
Playing this eternal game
What else is there to
Do in the world today
I don't care what the critics say
Someone has stabbed my heart
And yes perhaps it's me
Which I regret
Give me one more chance
To fix it
And we can start over
