(Just Like) Starting Over - John Lennon (cover-live by Bill Sharkey)
(Just Like) Starting Over (John Lennon, 1980). Live cover performance by Bill Sharkey, Home Studio, Hawaii Kai, HI. 2023-10-15. "Keeping the Oldies & Classics Alive"
"(Just Like) Starting Over," written by John Lennon, was Lennon's second and last no. 1 hit o the Billboard Hot 100 chart rising to the top position in 1980 (Whitburn, 2013). Lennon had recorded this song just before his death, which occurred on Dec 8, 1980. After he was killed by Mark David Chapman, the song rose to the #1 position and remained there for 5 weeks (Whitburn, 2013). This was one of the last songs Lennon recorded for his Lennon/Ono "Double Fantasy" LP (songfacts, 2013). "The copy of Double Fantasy that Mark Chapman asked Lennon to autograph might be the most valuable record in the world. The record, which figured in the court case, not only has Lennon's autograph but also boasts Chapman's fingerprints on the cover. In 2003, the record was sold for £525,000 [$641,150.62 in today's exchange rate] but its value has since rocketed" (songfacts, 2023); in fact, the album was placed in auction in 2020 and sold for $900,000 (goldinauctions, 2023).

Lyrics:
Our life together
Is so precious together
We have grown, we have grown
Although our love is still special
Let's take a chance and fly away
Somewhere alone
It's been too long since we took the time
No-one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly
But when I see you darling
It's like we both are falling in love again
It'll be just like starting over
Starting over
Everyday we used to make it love
Why can't we be making love nice and easy
It's time to spread our wings and fly
Don't let another day go by my love
It'll be just like starting over
Starting over
Why don't we take off alone
Take a trip somewhere far, far away
We'll be together all alone again
Like we used to in the early days
Well, well, well darling
It's been too long since we took the time
No-one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly
But when I see you darling
It's like we both are falling in love again
It'll be just like starting over
Starting over
Our life together
Is so precious together
We have grown, we have grown
Although our love still is special
Let's take a chance and fly away somewhere
(Over and over and over)
Starting over (over and over and over)
(And over and over and over)
(Over and over and over)
(And over and over and over)
