Translation
Bilingual
Step one, you say we need to talk
You 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
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and pain
You begin to wonder why you came
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere alone in the bitterness and I
Would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
ย
Let him know that you know best
'Cause after all you do know best
Try to step 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
Just pray to God he hears you
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere, alone, in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Mmmm
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 follow
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say "it's just not the same"
And you'll begin to wonder why you came
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere, alone, 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, alone, in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Oh
How to save a life
