Right back to the start now
Said goodbye with a kiss
The road splits off into the far side of town
It's time to come home

Ever unsure
If you'll ever head that way again
And ask the same questions
that seem to have no end

If the hill was ever that tall,
would you climb it at all?
If the world was really that small,
would you be running in a circle just to get back to the start?

Too far to look back now
Can't call your muse when it's sick
You'll have to find another way out of bounds
There will always be more
And what was it all for?
Will you ever speak her name again?
And ask the same questions
The ones that might never end

If the hill was ever that tall,
would you climb it at all?
And if the world is really that small,
will you be running in a circle just to get back to the start?

I was so wrong to walk out on you
Pack up these bags and fly on away
All of these prayers I went and wasted on you
You said, "give me anything
I'll try anything -- please just one chance to spare?"

Too close to the edge now
Takes all you got not to slip
Takes all you got to keep from doubling down
But you still never know

Approaching the end now
You tell yourself, "this is it.
It's now or never you could turn it around,
or you could ride on alone"
And what was it all for?
Will you ever find that same romance?
Will it come as easy?
Will it begin with a dance?

And if the hill was really that tall,
would you climb it at all?
If the world was really that small,
Would you be running in a circle just to get back to the start?
The race begins now
Will you win anyhow?
And will you try and give it your all?
Or will you run 'round in a circle just to get back to the start
