Am C
I wish that I had known in that first minute we met,
Em Am
The unpayable debt that I owed you.
Am C
Because you'd been abused by that bone that refused you,
Em Am
And you hired me to make up for that.
Am C
Walking in that room when you had tubes in your arms,
Em Am
Those singing morphine alarms out of tune
Am C
Kept you sleeping and even, and I didn't believe them
Em Am
When they called you a hurricane thunderclap.
Am C
When I was checking vitals I suggested a smile.
Em Am
You didn't talk for awhile, you were freezing.
Am C
You said you hated my tone, it made you feel so alone,
Em Am
And so you told me I ought to be leaving.
Am C
But something kept me standing by that hospital bed,
Em Am
I should have quit but instead I took care of you.
Am C
You made me sleep and uneven, and I didn't believe them
Em Am
When they told me that there was no saving you.
