Lyrics
Talk it all over again
I left you on a cold cold day
I was trying to find my own way
I closed the door and never looked behind
I had tried so hard to make it right
But it always ended in a fight
I was judging you thinking you were wrong
You were traveling far to your hometown
I picked up the phone to say I?m gone
And all you said was why don?t we
Please talk it all over again
Please let?s talk it all over again
You were telling me I still love you now
Didn?t want to know no matter how
Hard you tried to make me change my mind
There was our little girl suffering
No more daddy to play and sing
I felt like a stranger talking to her on the phone
When I came by to see you there
She was happy daddy everywhere
But I knew deep down this dream wasn?t going to last
Please talk it all over again?
You were pushing me sweet as pie
But I kept resisting since I had to try
To be a daddy without you being a wife
I went back home with a made up mind
I never was the lonely kind
But somehow deep inside could not let go
I was clearing up some stuff of mine
Came across this paper and read the lines
And my tears kept telling me why don?t you
Please talk it all over again into bridge
No matter how hard you tried
There?s still a chance to turn the tide
If we both believe with all our might
There is a path that leads into the light + chorus ad libs
