How to Save a Life - The Fray

[00:07.49] Step one, you say, "We need to talk"

[00:11.48] He walks, you say, "Sit down, it's just a talk"

[00:16.26] He smiles politely back at you

[00:19.98] You stare politely right on through

[00:23.96] Some sort of window to your right

[00:27.95] As he goes left and you stay right

[00:31.93] Between the lines of fear and blame

[00:35.92] You begin to wonder why you came

[00:39.37] Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend

[00:43.62] Somewhere along in the bitterness

[00:47.60] And I would have stayed up with you all night

[00:51.85] Had I known how to save a life

[01:03.01] Let him know that you know best

[01:06.73] 'Cause after all, you do know best

[01:10.71] You try to slip past his defense

[01:15.23] Without granting innocence

[01:19.21] Lay down a list of what is wrong

[01:23.20] The things you've told him all along

[01:26.92] Pray to God he hears you

[01:30.37] And pray to God he hears you

[01:34.09] And where did I go wrong? I lost a friend

[01:38.87] Somewhere along in the bitterness

[01:42.32] And I would have stayed up with you all night

[01:46.57] Had I known how to save a life

[01:58.26] As he begins to raise his voice

[02:01.71] You lower yours and grant him one last choice

[02:06.49] Drive until you lose the road

[02:09.68] Or break with the ones you've followed

[02:14.20] He will do one of two things

[02:17.92] He will admit to everything

[02:21.63] Or he'll say he's just not the same

[02:25.35] And you'll begin to wonder why you came

[02:29.34] Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend

[02:33.85] Somewhere along in the bitterness

[02:37.31] And I would have stayed up with you all night

[02:41.82] Had I known how to save a life

[02:46.34] Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend

[02:49.52] Somewhere along in the bitterness

[02:52.71] And I would have stayed up with you all night

[02:57.23] Had I known how to save a life

[03:16.62] Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend

[03:24.32] And I would have stayed up with you all night

[03:28.84] Had I known how to save a life

[03:32.29] Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend (where did I go wrong?)

[03:36.54] Somewhere along in the bitterness

[03:39.99] And I would have stayed up with you all night (and I would have stayed up)

[03:44.78] Had I known how to save a life
