Ask me a question I'll tell you all I know
You ask for my advice
And then you take a different road
You traveled oh so far
Left everyone who cared far behind
Left us all behind

How could I have ever saved you
The only thing I'd ever done was cared
How could I have ever blamed you
You never promised that you would always be there

I'll never know what you were thinking on that night
You saw him on the road and took the angel for a ride
He gave you confidence as you yearned for your own praise
Then took your soul away

How could I have ever saved you
The only thing I'd ever done was cared
How could I have ever blamed you
You never promised that you would always be there

Take a different road
Take a chance to know
There's so much more than winning
Take a different way
Wait another day
Now it seems that it's too late and...

How could I have ever saved you
The only thing I'd ever done was cared
How could I have ever blamed you
You never promised that you would always be there

How could I forget how important this band had been to me?? First songs I played with my very first band back in the day were Ben, Flight 601 and All My Fault. Fuck me, I've got such a short memory I feel so bad right now.
