She never really had a chance
On that fateful moonlit night
Sacrificed without a fight
A victim of her circumstance
Now that I´ve become aware
And I´ve exposed this tragedy
A sadness grows inside of me
It all seems so unfair
I´m learning all about my life
By looking through her eyes
Just beyond the churchyard gates
Where the grass is overgrown
I saw the writing on her stone
I felt like I would suffocate
Inloving memory of our child
So innocent, eyes open wide
I felt so empty as I cried
Like part of me had died
I´m learning all about my life
By looking through her eyes
And as her image
Wandered through my head
I wept just like a baby
As I lay awake in bed
And I know what it´s like
To lose someone you love
And this felt just the same
She wasn´t given any choice
Desperation stole her voice
I´ve been given so much more in life
I´ve got a son, I´ve got a wife
I had to suffer one last time
To grieve for her and say goodbye
Relive the anguish of my past
To find out who I was at last
The door has opened wide
I´m turning with the tide
Looking through her eyes
