lyrics

Here I go again
Falling in love again
Just when my boat of life had reached an even keel
O Lord it’s hard to know
If I’m headed for the undertow
And my lifeless form will ride the surges swell.

But maybe this time I’ll swim to shore
Or maybe wild waves will lift me o’er
Stowaway, castaway, come what may
Maybe this time love will find a way.

Here I go again
Giving my heart again
Hold it gently, don’t let it slip away
Into the stormy deep
And a dark and silent sleep
Til bruised and bleeding it’s tossed upon the shore.

But maybe this time the storms will pass
And maybe still waters will come at last
Stowaway, castaway, come what may
Maybe this time love will find a way.

Maybe this time love will find a way.
