Verse 1: Tim
I fell down again
But I can't complain
Another false step
Could drive me insane
Only got myself here to blame
So I shake off defeat
and I start again
Oh no I said I want to go
back But I can't rendition
And I gotta stay on track
Yeah make a tear like
that I keep my head up
But I never react
Refrain 1: Tom
I wrote it down
at least a month ago
Sixteen chapters of
one thing you've blown
The best thing yet to help
you through and through
That she was I feel
her more than you
Chorus: Tom
Don't leave
don't leave her
Interlude: A--A/C#--D-- x2
Verse 2: Tim
I get up just to get
knocked back down
I sit up just to get
knocked all around
I wanna say something
But you're out of town
I don't wanna have
another short down
Say stand up hey yo
let's make it clear
Follow you home no
you were not there
You saw me coming
jump you disappear
Home alone every
night seems so clear
You think you see
me here all along
Got my crew coming
now One by one
Two by two
Three by three
Four by four
Let's do some more
Refrain 2: Tom
Call me back when
word is that she's gone
Cat like thief she
stole air from my lungs
Leave me standing
on this lonely grave
I dug it out in case
she turns away
(Repeat Chorus twice)
Bridge:
You think you've
seen it All along
Got my crew coming
now One by one
Two by two
Three by three
Four by four
Let's do some more
(Repeat Chorus)
