I'll tell you now because you've asked
I feel the need to speak on her behalf
Although it's just my point of view
I did my part I just drove the car
Motor running outside the bar
She turned and said this won't take long
A shot rang out my mouth went dry
It scattered birds off the telephone wire
Then I saw her coming cool and slow
Smoking gun in her shaking hand
She climbed inside and I hit the gas
An hour passed before she spoke
I don't expect you to believe
That he said he'd kill me if I tried to leave
I've got the scars to prove he almost did
An' I don't expect you to understand
Why I stayed with such an angry man
It's a crazy mixture of love and fear
Love and fear
I tried to drink myself to someplace I could hide
Shelter poured into a glass
And at the bottom was a life free from this pain
And I resolved to get that life back again
I'd say I witnessed an act of God
Bullet used as lightning rod
A wolf cut down to save the flock
For judgement rained on that sunny day
The sound of thunder heard a mile away
The sky refused to shed a tear
Well that's my statment did you get that down
Don't bother lookin' she's not around
And even if I knew I would'nt say
I would'nt say
