WOKE UP THIS MORNING BUT YOU WERE'NT AT MY SIDE FEELING THE ANGER THE GLORY THE SORROW THE PRIDE YOU'D TOLD ME YOU'D STAY BUT I AM ALONE NOW YOU'RE GONE GAVE YOU EVERYTHING I HAD WHERE DID I GO WRONG? ONLY YESTERDAY YOU'D TOLD ME WE'RE RIGHT THEN WHY DID WE SCREAM AND WHY DID WE CRY WHILE WE FIGHT? I'M COUNTING THE REASONS FOR OUR BEING AS ONE OR SHOULD WE GO OUR SEPARATE WAYS AND START CHASING THE FUN? CHORUS STRANGE LIKE A CHILD ASLEEP IN HIS BED HEARING THE VISIONS OF THINGS THAT SHE SAID NOW IT IS OVER THE PAIN FILLS MY HEAD KNOWING SHE'S GONE AM I BETTER OFF DEAD? SOON YOU'LL COMING RUNNING BACK SAYING I NEED YOU BUT WHERE WERE YOU WHEN I WAS SAYING THE SAME THINGS TOO? YOU TOLD ME YOU'D LOVE ME FOREVER OH THAT WAS A LIE YOUR PICTURE ON THE WALL STARES AT ME WHILE I CRY CHORUS SOLO CHORUS OUTRO

CHORUS I WASN'T THERE FOR YOU - WHEN YOU NEEDED ME THE MOST PUT A CHILL BETWEEN US - LIKE A COLD WINTER WIND SWEPT COAST PUTTING THINGS RIGHT - SLOWLY AND SURELY AGAIN WILL TELL YOU RIGHT NOW - YOU'RE MY BEST - YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND

SOLO (JIM WRIGHT) THE FOG IT FILLS THE CLEARING DARK PRIEST HE SUMMONS US EYES PENETRATE MY SOUL GOD WILLING - DO I MUST AS I REMOVE THE WEAPON THE SUNLIGHT FILLS THE SKY I PULL THE FIRING PIN HOLY HAND GRENADE - IT FLIES...
