There's a lady who's learned
All that love her are lost
And she's dying inside now, can't you see?
When she sorts through the pain
And the guilt that she feels
With her heart she will find what she's missing
Ooh, ooh and she's dying inside now, can't you see?

There's a friend lying dead
But she needs to be strong
'cause the war rages on still around her
On a day, not too far
There'll be tears shed that show
Sometimes words spoken not, have more meaning

Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it makes me wonder

There's a sorrow I feel when I think of his death
And my heart doesn't know how to go on
In my thoughts all I see
Joxer's heart on his sleeve
And the singing of his that brings tears now

Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it really makes me wonder

And it's dreamed of by some
If we don't fear what's done
That the powers will make right what's been wronged
And a new song to sing
Of one who lives on
And the future will be filled with new tales

Don't see indifference in her mourning
She needs some time now
It's just the calm before the maelstrom
See there are some deaths you can't live with
Don't want to deal with
There's still time to mourn the one she loves

And it makes me wonder

Her heart is hurting, but it don't show
Encased in stone now
Defenses keeping her from feeling
Dear lady, can you sense him standing
By your side there?
Your Joxer lives on and keeps you near

And as she struggles down the path
Where darkness follows killing light
She'll find the lady we all know
Who lives for peace and looks for love
See all the good still in her heart
And it won't be so very long
The truth will come to her at last
When they are shown the time to come
To live again and not to part

And she's dying inside now, can't you see?
