Refrain ALL

[Verse 1]
I'm starting all over
I began with the words, but now they're gone
If you all would sing along
I've laid out the story
But I should have known the story would go all wrong
If the world would sing along

[Chorus]
I think that you know
When it's time for you to go
I'll stand and refrain

[Verse 2]
Never finished the end
We were at the beginning when I began
The story was getting good
When I heard your voice so clear say
"So long my friend"

[Chorus]
I think that you know
When it's time for you to go
I'll stand and refrain
Although I never really knew you
I'm prepared to show you that
I'll take all the blame
I'll stand and refrain
Shouldn't have held on so tight
If I dare to beg, I can't, now I see why
I'll take all the blame
Why lie about the way
I've been begging you to stay?
