[Instrumental (Acoustic Guitar, Mandolin and Piano)]
As the room slid into focus and he woke up
With room service at the door
And he wondered why he never spoke up
About all of that fear before
It was standing just an inch behind him
A shadow stalking by his side
A thing he was afraid would find him
And wash him away in the tide
And somehow she knew why I was crying
She knew just which fears I had not faced
And in her eyes I could see where I was lying to myself
And a path that she gently traced
To where the man in the movie said
Is it all right
If I miss her tonight
And the man felt just like me
They say a wolf in a trap will chew off his own leg
I guess I did the same
It's what you do with a thing you can't handle
A picture you just can't frame
And from somewhere deep in that movie
She opened a door in my chest
And delicately took out a death
That had never been laid to rest
And somehow she knew why I was crying
She knew just which fears I had not faced
And in her eyes I could see where I was lying to myself
And a path that she gently traced
To where the man in the movie said
Is it all right
If I miss her tonight
And the man felt just like me
Is it all right
If I miss her tonight
And that man felt just like me
