(Liz HengberBob Regan)

She can hear his car as it pulls in the drive

She can whisper a prayer thank God he's alive

She can meet him at the door, catch him when he falls

She can even believe that it isn't his fault

But she can't save him

She can make his coffee in the cold light of day

She can make his excuses, tell the boss he'll be late

She can wave at the neighbors then kiss him goodbye

And not say a word about what happened last night

But she can't save him

Sometimes she dreams that he's caught in a stream

And the water keeps pulling him down

She reaches for him as he pulls her in

She wakes just before she drowns

She can remember the man that he was

And still shed a tear for what he's become

She can live in that house until the day

She sees that it's only herself she can save

'Cause she can't save him

And that day she'll know she hasn't failed

'Cause nothing can change until he saves himself

No she can't save him
