frank watkinson - the last time i saw her. lyrics

[verse 1]
the last time i saw her, she was lying in bed in a hospital ward
few words were said
i could almost see her bones through her skin, her eyes were pale
and her hair was thin
she beckoned me over to stand by her side
held out her hand and let out a sigh
and i was too young to know she was saying goodbye
i was only eleven years

[chorus]
and she told me she loved me and she’d see me again
that things would get better, but she didn’t say when
and i believed her like any boy would
as she squeezed my hand as hard as she could
[verse 2]
somebody said it’s time to leave and i felt a hand take hold of me
i tried to resist as they led me away
i wanted to be there, i wanted to stay
i looked over my shoulder to say one more goodbye
and it was then that i saw the tears in her eye
and it was the first time that i’d seen her cry
and i remember as clear as day

[verse 3]
i still can remember that long corridor, it seemed like forever
the walk to the door, my sister was with me, i wasn’t alone
and they told us she’d be there when we came home
and now it’s “if only’s,” if only i’d tried to wipe away the tears from her eyes
if only i’d stayed, would she have pulled through?
if only i’d told her that i loved her too

[chorus]
well she told me she loved me and she’d see me again
and things would get better, but she didn’t say when
and i believed her like any boy would
as she squeezed my hand as hard as she could
[outro]
the last i saw her, she was lying in bed in a hospital ward
and few words were said
