Lately, lately we haven't been at our best
And maybe, maybe we had it coming 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 met
Everybody tells themselves that they must be justified
They do what they do because they're trying to get by
Maybe, maybe we all are selfish
But maybe, maybe it isn't over yet
Everybody hopes that love is like a prairie fire
That sweeps across the field consuming it all
Everybody hopes that love will never fade or flicker
That it's pure as the air we breathe
We've made mistakes that we can't change
But there's still time to start again
There's still time to start again
There's still time to start again
