I Should Have Saved You

I used to know this pretty girl
She'd always fall in love and relive the hurt
She'd wear a smile on her face and say it's okay
But she was dying inside, I know what it feels like
And now I'm standing here on a rainy day

She used to laugh, with a twinkle in her eye
She always swore to me, I'd never see her cry
And I know, that she was fighting a lost battle
But she held on to that bottle of time

And now I'm sitting in the rain
I'm crying out your name, can you hear me up there?
I left some flowers on your grave,
And I hate myself for letting you slip away
I should have saved you

I saw our picture, on my dresser in my bedroom
And there was dust all over your laughing face
I thought to myself, is there a way that she can see me?
Is she finally happy now that she's gone

And now I'm sitting in the rain
I'm crying out your name, can you hear me up there?
I left some flowers on your grave
And I hate myself for letting you slip away
I should have saved you

I should have held you tighter, spent the night
Or told you you were perfect to me
Because we're fighters, it's alright, we're
Taking the road no one travels by
But that's alright
