She never really had a chance

On that fateful moonlight night

Sacrificed without a fight

A victim of her circumstances

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 her 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

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
