Step one you say we need to talk
|
He walks you say sit down it¢¥s just a talk
|
He smiles politely back at you
|
You stare politely right on through
|
|
Some sort of window to your right
|
As he goes left and you stay right
|
Between the lines of fear and blame
|
And you begin to wonder why you came
|
|
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
|
Somewhere along in the bitterness
|
And I would have stayed up with you all night
|
Had I known how to save a life
|
|
Let him know that you know best
|
Cause after all you do know best
|
Try to slip past his defense
|
Without granting innocence
|
Lay down a list of what is wrong
|
The things you¢¥ve told him all along
|
And pray to God he hears you
|
And pray to God he hears you
|
|
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
|
Somewhere along in the bitterness
|
And I would have stayed up with you all night
|
Had I known how to save a life
|
|
As he begins to raise his voice
|
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
|
Drive until you lose the road
|
Or break with the ones you¢¥ve followed
|
He will do one of two things
|
He will admit to everything
|
Or he¢¥ll say he¢¥s just not the same
|
And you¢¥ll begin to wonder why you came
|
|
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
|
Somewhere along in the bitterness
|
And I would have stayed up with you all night
|
Had I known how to save a life
|
|
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
|
Somewhere along in the bitterness
|
And I would have stayed up with you all night
|
Had I known how to save a life
