She never really had a chance
On that fateful moonlit night
Sacrificed without a fight
A victim of her circumstance
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 the writing on a stone
I felt like I would suffocate
In loving memory of our child
So innocent, eyes opened wide
I felt so empty as I cried
That part of me had died
I'm learning all about my life
By looking through her eyes
And as her image wandered through my head
I wept just like a baby as I lie 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 is open wide
I'm turning with the tide
And looking through her eyes
