He sits in his cell
And he lays on his bed
Covers his head
And closes his eyes

He sees a smoking gun
And the coward, he ran
And in his arms is the bleeding
Love of his life

And she cries
Kiss it all better
I'm not ready to go

It's not your fault
Love, you didn't know
You didn't know

Her hands are so cold
And he kisses her face
And says
"Everything will be all right"

He noticed the gun
And his rage grew inside
He said
"I'll avenge my lover tonight"

And she cried
Kiss it all better
I'm not ready to go

It's not your fault
Love, you didn't know
You didn't know

Now he sits behind prison bars
25 to life and she's not in his arms
He couldn't bring her back

With a bullet to the heart
Of the back of a man
And tore his world apart

He holds onto a memory
All it is, is a memory
(Hey, hey)

He cries

"Stay with me
Until I fall asleep
Stay with me

Stay with me
Until I fall asleep
Stay with me

Stay with me
Until I fall asleep
Stay with me

Stay with me
Until I fall asleep
Stay with me"

Kiss it all better
I'm not ready to go

It's not your fault
Love, you didn't know
You didn't know

(Kiss it all better)
Stay with me
Until I fall asleep
Stay with me

Stay with me
Until I fall asleep
Stay with me

(Kiss it all better)
Stay with me
Until I fall asleep
Stay with me

Stay with me
Until I fall asleep
Stay with me
