[00:45.08]I wish that I had known in [00:48.69]That first minute we met [00:52.16]The unpayable debt [00:55.64]That I owed you [01:00.36]'Cause you'd been abused [01:03.86]By the bone that refused [01:07.42]You and you hired me [01:10.87]To make up for that [01:16.01]And walking in that room [01:18.62]When you had tubes in your arms [01:22.54]Those singing morphine alarms [01:26.30]Out of tune [01:30.14]They had you sleeping and eating and [01:34.48]And I didn't believe them [01:37.93]When they called you a hurricane thunderclap [01:45.90]When I was checking vitals [01:48.95]I suggested a smile [01:52.45]You didn't talk for a while [01:56.08]You were freezing [02:00.00]You said you hated my tone [02:03.71]It made you feel so alone [02:07.81]So you told me I had to be leaving [02:15.94]But something kept me standing [02:19.38]By that hospital bed [02:23.04]I should have quit but instead [02:26.41]I took care of you [02:30.33]You made me sleep and uneven [02:34.20]And I didn't believe them [02:38.45]When they told me that there [02:41.56]Was no saving you [02:45.22]
