Story Behind The Song
A sorrowful tale of a love.....or perhaps many loves gone bad..........and continuing to live with the good memories.....while trying to forget the bad ones.

Sometimes things just don't work out the way we had envisioned they would. Just a reminder that we aren't really in charge.... but we must continue to move forward.....as we hold on to our memories.

Lyrics
STARTIN' OVER AGAIN
Writer: Jerry Lee Surber (ASCAP) Copyright 2004
STARTIN OVER AGAIN
GOIN BACK TO SQUARE ONE
NO MORE TRYIN TO PRETEND
THAT MY LIFE'S NOT UNDONE
STARTIN OVER AGAIN
WHO'S TO SAY WHERE THIS WILL LEAD?
BACK ON THE OUTSIDE...LOOKIN IN
STARTIN OVER AGAIN
I LOOK AROUND BUT ALL I SEE
ARE STRANGER'S FACES LOOKIN BACK
ALL MY FRIENDS HAVE GONE AWAY
AND THERE'S NO DISPUTIN THAT
ON THE DAY SHE UP AND LEFT
IT SEEMED LIKE MY WHOLE WORLD WOULD END
BUT YEARS HAVE PASSED AND I'M STILL HERE
STILL STARTIN OVER AGAIN
STARTIN OVER AGAIN
GOIN BACK TO SQUARE ONE
NO MORE TRYIN TO PRETEND
THAT MY LIFE'S NOT UNDONE
STARTIN OVER AGAIN
WHO'S TO SAY WHERE THIS WILL LEAD?
BACK ON THE OUTSIDE...LOOKIN IN
STARTIN OVER AGAIN
NOW I DON'T BLAME NOBODY ELSE
I'LL TAKE RESPONSIBLIITY
I'M DOIN FINE HERE BY MYSELF
WITH ALL THESE OLD SWEET MEMORIES
STARTIN OVER AGAIN
GOIN BACK TO SQUARE ONE
NO MORE TRYIN TO PRETEND
THAT MY LIFE'S NOT UNDONE
STARTIN OVER AGAIN
WHO'S TO SAY WHERE THIS WILL LEAD?
BACK ON THE OUTSIDE...LOOKIN IN
STARTIN OVER AGAIN
BACK ON THE OUTSIDE...LOOKIN IN
STARTIN OVER AGAIN
