As another day lays down its head
I sit here reading by your light
My mind is singing with all we've said
Scared at how violent it can be

For wrong and right and not like black and white
Everything falls in the middle
Oh, self-doubt surrounds you in the night
You suddenly find yourself running
Keep out the people, keep out the day
Let us begin by beginning
The secret of the future's never told
Let us begin by beginning

Let us begin by beginning

Let's keep the curtains closed today
And hope that everyone will stay away
This is our first date for quite a while
Let's keep it just for you and me

I hope that there's no sadness in your heart
Could this be just the start of coming home?
Alone again, we'll find if we were near
Or was it just the fear of being alone?

So I won't promise me or lie to you
The answers hide in what we do
Just wish you well and hope that we don't cry
And never never say goodbye

There's just one thing I ask of you
There's just one thing I ask you not to do
Never never say goodbye
Never never say goodbye
Let's keep the curtains closed today
And not worry what the people say
The future always seems so far away
So let's make sure we have today
