    Story Behind the Song
    Should I let fear or hope drive me into the future? Let's try hope in spite of reason. I stole a lot from Carly Simon to do this song, including her ex-husband's guitar style. It's a partly canned accompaniment, but it worked, so i didnt mess with it.

    Lyrics
    I think it’s time I tried something new...
    You wouldn’t be the first
    to call me skeptical
    I don’t expect perfection cause I realize
    The good things in this life
    don’t happen by themselves.
    You take the bitter with the sweet
    And even though you know
    the good things do not last
    You got to try and forget the past
    Go through the doorway ready for it all
    New challenges and new tears
    that will fall
    New pleasures and new pain
    Or just more of the same ...

    But it could be ...

    Just plain wonderful
    A miracle from its inception
    Just plain marvelous
    A dream come true without deception
    And all the things that used to
    make me cry
    I won’t remember why
    And I’ll stand until the tears
    have gone away
    Cause at last I got to spend a day
    With something wonderful.

    I think it’s time I found someone new...
    You wouldn’t be the first
    to call me terrified.
    You can’t expect perfection
    in a human soul
    And no one on this earth
    can answer all my prayers
    I have to take you as you are
    And though Iknow you might not be
    quite what you seem
    I can’t keep living in a dream
    Go out and take my chances like the rest
    And if you break my heart,
    I’ll know I tried my best
    You could be my final blow
    Or just use me and go ...

    Or you could be ...

    Just plain wonderful
    A miracle from your conception
    Just plain fabulous
    A dream come true without deception
    And all the things that used to
    make us cry
    We’ll laugh and wonder why
    And you’ll hold me till my tears
    have all run dry
    Cause at last I got to spend my life
    With someone wonderful.
