Song: the one you love
He says it?s none of my damn business how much he drinks
And he doesn?t have a problem, no matter what the whole town thinks
At his baby?s birthday party there was whiskey on his breath
Everybody wants to save him but he?s not ready yet
You wanna scream, you wanna cry
You want someone to tell you why
All the hope that?s in your heart is not enough
You hit your knees, you shake your fists
Oh, it?s the deepest wound there is
When you can?t help the one you love
Her sister reads the Bible, her father sits and snores
They?re with her every minute 'cause they may not have many more
She was dancing in New Orleans only seven weeks ago
Life may go on with out her but not the life we know
You wanna scream, you wanna cry
You want someone to tell you why
All the hope that?s in your heart is not enough
You hit your knees, you shake your fists
Oh, it?s the deepest wound there is
When you can?t help the one you love
When someone?s slipping away, right before your eyes
How useless we are is a painful surprise
You wanna scream, you wanna cry
You want someone to tell you why
All the hope that?s in your heart is not enough
You hit your knees, you shake your fists
Oh, it?s the deepest wound there is
When you can?t help the one you love
When you can?t help the one you love
