John LennonAbout

(Just Like) Starting Over Lyrics
[Intro]
Our life together is so precious together
We have grown - we have grown
Although our love is still special
Let's take a chance and fly away somewhere alone
[Verse 1]
It's been too long since we took the time
No-one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly
But when I see you darlin'
It's like we both are fallin' in love again
It'll be just like startin' over (Over)
Startin' over (Over)
[Verse 2]
Everyday we used to make it love
Why can't we be making love nice and easy?
It's time to spread our wings and fly
Don't let another day go by, my love
It'll be just like startin' over (Over)
Starting over (Over)
[Bridge]
Why don't we take off alone?
Take a trip somewhere far, far away
We'll be together, all alone again
Like we used to in the early days
Well, well, darlin'
[Verse 1]
It's been too long since we took the time
No-one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly
But when I see you darlin'
It's like we both are fallin' in love again
It'll be just like startin' over (Over)
Startin' over (Over)
Look out!
[Outro]
Our life together is so precious together
We have grown - we have grown
Although our love is still special
Let's take a chance and fly away somewhere...
(Over and over and over)
Starting over
(Over and over and over
Over and over and over
Over and over and over)

What did John Lennon say about "(Just Like) Starting Over"?
And to me it was like going back to 15 and singing à la Presley. All the time I was referring to Jon [Smith], the engineer, here in the room I was referring to Elvis Orbison. It’s kinda like… “Only The Lonely”, you know… a kind of parody but not really parody.
