I wished I had known
In the first minute we met
The fear in your heart
The feeling of debt I owed you
Because you've been abused
By the lover that refused you
And you wanted me to make up for that
Walking towards your room
Into your waiting arms
Those red flags and silent alarms
I should have known
We did all but sleep
And I didn't believe them
When they called you a hurricane
A thunderclap
Something kept me standing
I should have quit just then
Instead I took care of you
But there was no saving you
I should have believed
When they all told me
That there was no saving you
