[00:28.29] When I saw him last
[00:31.20] He had that look in his eyes
[00:35.10] I said, do you need to talk?
[00:38.49] He said, no.
[00:39.78] So I called him up, asked him again and I waited a while -
[00:48.93] He began to speak, then he started to cry
[00:55.65] You know some things are best left unspoken
[01:03.54] And some things just never work out
[01:09.45] And sometimes, seems you try and you try and whatever you do
[01:16.53] Theres a fix that youre in, and you just cant get out
[01:23.34] He said, i need your help, I need it now
[01:31.32] Give me the strength to go on
[01:47.28] Though I didnt know what
[01:50.55] I knew that something was wrong
[01:54.27] But he still had his pride
[01:55.83] Hed tell me in time
[02:01.20] Well this feeling inside
[02:04.53] Kept eating at me
[02:08.04] I was losing a friend, and I had to know why
[02:14.97] When I heard the voice on the phone, I knew it was bad news
[02:25.35] So I rushed to be by his side
[02:30.18] And we said goodbye for the last time
[02:35.52] I gently hugged him, and kissed him goodbye
[02:42.18] He whispered, i need your help, I need it now
[02:49.68] Give me the strength to go on.
[02:55.65] We were always laughing
[03:02.37] I just remember laughing, mama
[03:09.12] We were always laughing
[03:25.56] Oh I need your help, I need it now
[03:44.91] Give me the strength to go on
[03:45.48] Though as time goes by, and it all becomes clear
[03:51.00] We can see the deceit, we see the lies
[03:57.84] So I asked myself, over and over, and over again
[04:01.17] What did they know? what did they hide?
[04:08.46] Fools, leading the innocent blindly
[04:09.21] Fools, turning away
[04:26.73] And I know that
[04:27.00] When I think of my friend with that look in his eyes
[04:33.72] And if they told the truth, he might be here today
[04:36.69] I need your help, I need it now
[04:46.23] Just give me the strength to go on, on
[04:55.86] I remember the laughing
[05:02.13] We were always laughing
[05:23.01] Oh no - its just strength we need now
[05:50.16] Just the strength to go on...
