Begin Again (The Man's Perspective)

Take a deep breath in the mirror
He didn’t like when you wore high heels
But I do
Turn the lock and put your headphones on
He always said he didn’t get your songs
But I do, I do

Thought I’d be angry ‘cause your late
But I got here early and I stand and wave
You walk to me
I pull your chair out and help you in
And yes I know nice that is
Yes I know

I throw my head back laughing like a little kid
And I want to make you feel special because he never did
You’ve been spending the last eight months
Thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday in a café, I watched it begin again

You said you never met one guy
Who knew as many small town artists as you
But I do
We tell stories ‘bout our crazy lives
You’re coming off a little shy
Like I do

I throw my head back laughing like a little kid
And I want to make you feel special because he never did
You’ve been spending the last eight months
Thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday in a café, I watched it begin again

And we walked down the block to your car and you almost stopped right there
But we start to walk forward and talk about your family and friends
Every single desire and you want to talk about that
And for the first time what’s past is past

I throw my head back laughing like a little kid
And I want to make you feel special because he never did
You’ve been spending the last eight months
Thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday in a café, I watched it begin again
But on a Wednesday in a café, we watched it begin again
