Lyrics[]
Finn:
Come up to meet you,
Tell you I'm sorry,
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you,
Tell you I need you,
Tell you I set you apart
Blaine:
Tell me your secrets,
And ask me your questions,
Oh, let's go back to the start
Runnin' in circles,
Comin’ up tails,
Heads on the science apart
Santana:
Nobody said it was easy
Finn and Blaine:
It’s such a shame for us to part
Santana:
Nobody said it was easy,
Finn and Blaine:
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start
Kurt:
I was just guessing,
At numbers and figures,
Pulling the puzzles apart
Brittany:
Questions of science,
Science and progress,
Do not speak as loud as my heart
Will and Emma:
But tell me you love me,
Come back and haunt me,
Oh, when I rush to the start
Rachel and Finn:
Runnin' in circles,
Chasin’ our tails,
Comin' back as we are
Rachel and Finn with Brittany, Santana, Blaine, Kurt, Will and Emma:
Nobody said it was easy,
Rachel and Finn:
Oh, it's such a shame for us to part
Rachel and Finn with Brittany, Santana, Blaine, Kurt, Will and Emma:
Nobody said it was easy,
Rachel and Finn:
No one ever said it would be so hard
Rachel:
I'm goin' back to the start!
Finn, Brittany, Santana, Blaine, Kurt, Will and Emma (Rachel):
Nobody said it was easy
No no (Yeah...) no no
(Oh woah!) Nobody said it was easy,
No (Nobody said it was easy!) no no no
Nobody said it was easy
No (No!) no no no
Rachel with Finn, Brittany, Santana, Blaine, Kurt, Will and Emma:
Nobody said it was easy
