What a surprise hearing from you
It's been a long, long time since you wrote me
How is Cornell? Last time you said
You found it hard to relate to the people
Are you still renting that furnished room
From that woman who tried to act like your mother?
How did that love affair turn out
With that Austrian guy you thought of more as a brother?
Regina, I wanna see you by my door
Bags in hand
Askin' me to start it all again
Regina, don't ask me why
I never said all these things before
I guess it's taken this long
To find out you were the one
Things have been goin' right for a change
Finally workin' enough to get by
I bought a piano and I sold my old car
Remember the time that we broke down that night?
But part of the reason I'm writing back
Is you sounded so sad, I thought I'd make you feel better
But try to look closely between all these lines
It's so hard to explain some things in a letter
Regina, I wanna see you by my door
Bags in hand
Askin' me to start it all again
Regina, don't ask me why
I never said all these things before
I guess it's taken this long
To find out you were the one
Regina, I wanna see you by my door
Bags in hand
Askin' me to start it all again, yeah
You wanna start it all over
Start it all over
Start it all over
Start it all over, yeah
You're comin' home, babe
(Regina, don't ask me why)
You're comin' home, babe
(Don't even try to understand)
You're comin' home, babe
You're comin' home, babe
What I wanna see you by my door
(Regina, don't ask me why)
Don't you wanna try it once more, baby?
(Don't even try to understand)
Tellin' me you understand
That's what you're gonna be tellin' me then
Any kind of fool could see
(Regina)
How much you always meant to me
Got to call it destiny
You know you got to be with me
(Regina)
We got to try it one more time
Got to make you know that I'm
Everything you want in a man, baby
Got to understand, oh
What I'm tryin' to tell you, babe
