[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...
