She can hear his car
As it pulls in the drive.
She can whisper a prayer
Thank god hes alive.
She met him at the door
And catch him when he falls.
She can even believe it isn`t his fault.
But she can`t save him.
She can make his coffee
In the cold light of day.
She can make his excuses
Tell the boss he`ll be late.
She can wave at the neighbors
Kiss him good bye.
And not say a not say a word `bout what happened last night.
But she can`t save him.
Some times she dreams that hes caught in a stream
And the water keeps pulling him down.
She reaches for him
As he pulls her in.
She wakes just before she drowns.
But she can remember
The man that he was.
An still shed a tear
For what hes become.
She can live in that house
Until the day
She sees that its only herself she can save.
Cause she cant save him.
And that day she`ll know
She hasn`t failed
Cause nothing can change until he saves himself.
Cause she can`t save him.
No, she can`t save him.
No she can`t save him....
