She never gave up. She just gave it time. This song tells the story of a woman who set aside her dreams for love and family, not out of weakness, but choice. Now, the kids are grown, the wrong man is gone, and she's right back on track. With a bright acoustic guitar and a confident voice, Starting Again is not about healing. It's about finally doing what she always planned to do.

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I had dreams like stars in the sky,
But love swept in and changed my plans to fly.
Two kids came along, and laughter filled our home,
I traded my dreams for the life that we'd own.
[Verse 2]
As they grew up, their wings took flight,
In quiet evenings, I dreamed of the night.
But love turned to shadows, and he strayed from the truth,
In the wreckage, my spirit found its proof.
[Chorus]
Now I'm finding my way back to who I used to be,
With every step I take, I'm reclaiming me.
Though love took a turn and left me feeling small,
I'm standing here stronger, ready to break down walls.
[Bridge]
So I'm going back to school, hitting the books,
A doctor's white coat waits, like a beacon of light.
I'm doing it for me, and for my kids too,
To show them a woman can always break through.
[Verse 3]
No more looking back, this heart has grown wise,
Chasing my dreams under vast, open skies.
This intelligent woman, chasing brighter days
Dreams reignited; I'm starting again, ablaze.
[Chorus]
Now I'm finding my way back to who I used to be,
With every step I take, I'm reclaiming me.
Though love took a turn and left me feeling small,
I'm standing here stronger, ready to break down walls.
[Instrumental Outro]
No need for rescue, no need to pretend,
I wrote my own story, and this ain't the end.
