Sanoja: Terri Clark. The Long Way Home. The One You Love.

(feat. Vince Gill)

He says it's none of my damn business, how much he drinks
And he doesn't have a problem, no mater what the whole town thinks
At his baby's birthday party, there was whiskey on his breath
Everybody wants to save him, but he's not ready yet

You wanna scream, you wanna cry
You want someone to tell you why
All the hope that's in your heart is not enough
You hit your knees, you shake your fists
Oh, it's the deepest wound there is
When you can't help the one you love

Her sister reads the bible, her father sits an' snores
They're with her every minute, 'cause they may not have many more
She was dancin' in New Orleans, only seven weeks ago
Life may go on without her, but not the life we know

You wanna scream, you wanna cry
You want someone to tell you why
All the hope that's in your heart is not enough
You hit your knees, you shake your fists
Oh, it's the deepest wound there is
When you can't help the one you love

When someone's slippin' away
Right before your eyes
How useless we are
Is a painful surprise

You wanna scream, you wanna cry
You want someone to tell you why
All the hope that's in your heart is not enough
You hit your knees, you shake your fists
Oh, it's the deepest wound there is
When you can't help the one you love

When you can't help the one you love
