The party went wrong

THE PARTY

She sits alone
Night after night
Thinking of him again

She thinks of the times
Walking side-by-side
They held each others hand

She thinks of the time
They went to the dance
Spinning round the room

She thinks of the time
Sitting on the beach
They saw their first full moon

She comes to the time
Just months ago
When everything went wrong

The party was over
The fun had been had
Now it was time to be gone

Down the road
Not very far
He never saw the other car

Crossed the line
It came so fast
She woke in the hospital
They said he had passed

If only that had been all
The doctor came in,
she'd no longer walk

If only the driver hadn't been drunk
