So Alone

He set out that day the world was in his hands
His life, like lightening, was waiting to happen
She stood by the window
Watching the flight touch down
She couldn't stop as the tears
They rolled down from her eyes
And it was time to tell him
After their first embrace in years
And she knew that it would kill him
Still she told him through the tears

She said, "Baby please forgive me
I was a loaded gun so alone
I could not wait one more single day ... anymore"

Devastated he stood oh, what would he do now?
After building his whole life
On top of a dream
And the anger that had blinded him
You could cut it, with a knife
There seemed no way out
Oh this was the end

Like a wanted man he felt crucified
As he put the pistol to his head
He thought all his prayers were answered
But into his eyes she'd said

She said, "Baby please forgive me
I was a loaded gun so alone
I could not wait one more single day
Baby please forgive me
I couldn't wait for one more night
I just could not give you my life"

She couldn't tell him what went wrong
Oh i've got a family of my own now
It was dragging on too long
Oh but at night, in a fire, in darkness
And the darkness fills the room and me
I hold a candle to my heart and
Well, you're all I see, no, no

Well the walls outside
They were falling
While inside the war ran rife
Baby I could never leave your side but why should I take my life
Oh no, no, I could never take my life
You ain't worth it
You ain't worth it
