The Fray - How to Save a Life (Cover) on Spotify & Apple
Published 3 Apr 2021
About 10 years ago, my fiancé Guy went to stay with his Granny in London. A few days previous her next door neighbour had tragically taken her own life. Through the bedroom walls Guy heard her grieving grandson playing this song on repeat throughout the entire night. This story broke my heart and it still does even now. I hope he found comfort in this song that night. Wherever he is, this one is for him.

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
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
Let him know that you know best
'Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
Pray to God, he hears you
And I pray to God, he hears you
And 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
As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break 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
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
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

Also, your choice to go with the silent "F" on the word "life" is genius.
