I'd seen the pictures, life seemed all the richer
Sentimental, perfect smile
Social grace and oldie style
He's alright, I said
No surprises there
Met him a month late
Same old laughter, nothing's changed
Big ambition, future plans
Put his best days in my hands
He's alright, I said
So that's it settled then

Don't go alone
I can't lose you
Why did you have to go like that?

Why'd we fail to see it?
Selfishly still sleeping
Left with nothing, not a sign
Missing diaries, different mind
He's alright, we said
Now look what's come of it

Don't go alone
I can't lose you
Why did you have to go like that?
I'll never know if I could have saved you
If it was my place to hold you back

Hold you back

Don't go alone
I can't lose you
Why did you have to go like that?
I'll never know if I could have saved you
If it was my place to hold you back

Hold you back
