Step one: you say we need to talk
He walks, you say sit down, it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you,
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came
It's funny really; I was always just the girl who nobody wanted to befriend
I was the No-It-All that jumped up and was the teacher's pet
I...never was that with Harry
Harry was my first real friend, then Ron, and Neville and Luna...
I knew the signs...
I saw the warnings...but...but
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along
In the bitterness and
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
I...
...Was a coward I didn't want to lose that friendship...
Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
For all my books and cleverness...I really am useless...
I saw the beginning...I could have gotten help...but...
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you
...But...
I...
Was coward
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along
In the bitterness and
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
I chickened out!
WHY DID I DO THAT! I COULD HAVE DONE SOMETHING!
Some Gryffindor I turned out to be!
Ron came home with a bruised hand, and I saw Ginny and the kids...
Ginny was bruised and the children looked frightened...
As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or brake with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came
I went to their house to talk to harry but... all I did was drink the tea he offered and said nothing...
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along
In the bitterness and
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
My tongue wouldn't speak...
How do you save a life?
A life...
When it's ending right before your very eyes...
I wept as I left...
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along
In the bitterness and
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life
How to save a life
Sometime later the children came through our Floo saying that mom was still there talking to their raging father...I gave them chocolate and still I could do nothing...
How to save a life?
Ginny came later and as she spoke crying as she did...I still couldn't find the words to say...
Sometime later I heard about his death...
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along
In the bitterness and
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
I went to his grave full of regret...
Regret...
That I couldn't save a life...
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along
In the bitterness and
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life
How to save a life
