Her eyes were closed when I caught her in bed
Oh, she seemed much happier then
I sat by her side and I couldnt help but cry
I was here for a reason and I
Finally understood and my oh my
Could only ask myself why oh why
Cant we talk this through and make things right?
Oh, Id sure as hell like to try
Right about this time she opened her eyes
And asked how long I had been there
Well, my tongue was tied
I said nothing, I just stared
She said, "Oh, I didnt think you cared..."
Well, I wasnt ready for what she said next
She said, "There is nothing else that you can do
No, you cant understand what Im going through
And if the world has changed, well, Ill be damned
Oh, cause Im no good at being brave
Not even on the better days
And there are things we cannot save
No matter how hard we try
There is nothing else that you can do
No, you cant understand what Im going through
And if the world has changed, well, youll do fine..."
Oh, I tried, but no, I could not stand
I touched her with a trembling hand
I choked
I could not say goodbye
No matter how hard I tried
