| Lyrics:
[N:]
She never really had a chance
On that fateful moonlight night
Sacrificed without a fight
A victim of her circumstances
Now that I`ve become aware
And I`ve exposed this tragedy
A sadness grows inside of me
It all seems so unfair
I`m learning all about my life
By looking through her eyes
Just beyond the churchyard gates
Where the grass is overgrown
I saw her writing on her stone
I felt like I would suffocate
Inloving memory of our child
So innocent, eyes open wide
I felt so empty as I cried
Like part of me had died
And as her image
Wandered through my head
I wept just like a baby
As I lay awake in bed
And I know what it`s like
To lose someone you love
And this felt just the same
She wasn`t given any choice
Desperation stole her voice
I`ve been given so much more in life
I`ve got a son, I`ve got a wife
I had to suffer one last time
To grieve for her and say goodbye
Relive the anguish of my past
To find out who I was at last
The door has opened wide
I`m turning with the tide
Looking through her eyes |
