[Verse 1]
I want to be free of you, I just don't know what to do
I wanna start my life all over again
So confused in my mind, it's just a matter of time
Before we go our separate ways
[Verse 2]
I love you too much, I'll miss your gentle touch
But life is gonna be different for me now
I feel I have to go, I just can't stay
My heart is takin' me away
[Chorus]
I wanna start my life all over again (over, over, baby)
I'm happy for the first time in my life
They say a man can never change
But that's alright, I take a chance on life today
I wanna start my life all over again (over, over, baby)
I'm happy for the first time in my life
And they say a man can never change
Ooh, but that's alright, I take a chance on life today
[Bridge]
(Over, over, baby) mmm...
(Over, baby, over, baby)
(Over, baby, over)
[Chorus]
I wanna start my life all over again, yeah (over, over, baby)
I'm happy for the first time in my life
They say a man can never change
Ooh, but that's alright, I take a chance on life today
Well, well, well...
[Outro]
(I wanna start my life all over again)
I wanna start my life, start it all over again
(I'm happy for the first time in my life)
I'm happy for the first time in my life (happy, happy, happy)
And they say a man can never change (ooh...)
(That's alright, that's alright, that's alright)
Ooh, but that's alright, I'll take a chance on life today
(That's alright, that's alright, that's alright)
I wanna start my life, start it all over again
(That's alright, that's alright, that's alright)
I'm happy for the first time in my life
(That's alright, that's alright, that's alright)
And they say a man can never, never, never change
(That's alright, that's alright, that's alright)
But that's alright, I'll take my chance on life today
(I wanna start my life all over again)
Gonna start it, gonna start it all over again
(I'm happy for the first time in my life)
'Cause I'm happy for the first time in my life (happy, happy, happy)
And they say a man can never change (ooh...)
(That's alright, that's alright, that's alright)
Ooh, but that's alright, I'll take a chance on life today
(That's alright, that's alright, that's alright)
That's alright, that's alright, that's alright, ha, ha...
(That's alright, that's alright, that's alright)
That's alright, that's alright, that's alright...
