Where Do You Start? - Sophie Milman

Where do you start

How do you separate the present from the past

How do you deal with all the thing you

Thought would last

That didn't last

With bits of memories scattered here and there

I look around and don't know where to start

Which books are yours

Which tapes and dreams belong to you

And which are mine

Our lives are tangled

Like the branches of a vine

That intertwine

So many habits that we'll have to break

And yesterday's we'll have to take apart

One day there'll be a song

Or something in the air again

To catch me by surprise

And you'll be there again

A moment in what might have been

Where do you start

Do you allow yourself a little time to cry

Or do you close your eyes

And kiss it all goodbye

I guess you try

And though I don't know where

And don't know when

I'll find myself in love again

I promise there will always be

A little place no one will see

A tiny part deep in my heart

That stays in love with you
