You have travelled so far and you finally are where you belong
You've braved mountains and valleys just to reach me, now they tell us you don't belong

They say you staying is wrong, the side you were born makes you unwelcome here
They have made you a stranger in a strange land but your heart leads you on without fear
Just when you begin to let go and my love makes you feel at home in this world
All we've done to be close they tear apart and we start

All over All over All over again
All over All over All over again
All over All over All over again
All over All over All over again

You had to run and I've come undone since you've been gone
I braved mountains and valleys trying to find you but you were long gone

They say it's better this way that we shouldn't have tried
But I feel like a stranger in my own land without you by my side
Just when I begin to lose faith your love makes me feel there's hope in this world
All we have done makes us closer, they can't tear us apart

All over All over All over again
All over All over All over again
All over All over All over again
All over All over All over again

If we ever start to lose hope, our faith will find love a way in this world
all we have done is not lost though we're apart

We will start...

All over All over All over again
All over All over All over again
All over All over All over again
All over All over All over again
