I don't know what to say
To make you feel better.
I don't know what to do
To make it all okay.
And I don't know how
To make everything alright.
All I can do is listen, hug you
Tell you I love you and I need you,
And I want you to be okay.

As we raced across town
A million thoughts crossed my mind.
Is she okay? Is she conscious?
Is she cut up and bloody?
Has she taken the pills?
Will I see her smile again?
Will I hear her laugh?
I'd settle for your cry,
I'd settle for your sobs and
Your laboured breathing,
As long as you're still breathing.

We made it in time.
I know you're sorry.
I know you hate yourself
But I'd rather have cried,
Chanced a speeding ticket,
And ran a few stoplights,
To make it to you in time.
To make it in time
To see you alive
And breathing,
And whole.

I love you,
And I'm never ever,
Letting go.
