Verse 1

Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry

You don't know how lovely you are

I had to find you, tell you I need you

And tell you I set you apart

Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions

Oh, let's go back to the start

Runnin' in circles, comin' up tails

Heads on a science apart

Chorus

Nobody said it was easy

It's such a shame for us to part

Nobody said it was easy

No one ever said it would be this hard

Oh, take me back to the start

Verse 2

I was just guessin' at numbers and figures

Pullin' your puzzles apart

Questions of science, science and progress

Do not speak as loud as my heart

And tell me you love me, come back and haunt me

Oh, and I rush to the start

Runnin' in circles, chasin' our tails

Comin' back as we are

Chorus

Nobody said it was easy

Oh, it's such a shame for us to part

Nobody said it was easy

No one ever said it would be so hard

I'm goin' back to the start
