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
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
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
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
How to save a life
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
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
How to save a life
How to save a life
