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

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 step politely right on through

Some sort of window to your right

The seagulls 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

Ooh, how to save a life

Ooh, had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best

'Cause after all, you do know best

Tryna slip past his defense

Without granting innocеnce

Lay down a list of what is wrong

The things you told him all along

Pray to God Hе hears you

And I pray to God He hears you, when

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

Ooh, how to save a life

Ooh, had I known how to save a life
