I was walkin? down the street
In a strange and dark downtown
I looked up and then I saw your face,
Your eyes were kinda dull
But your smile made up for that
You said, ?Come on, doll, I wanna show you this place.?
So I held onto his hand
I had nothin? else to do
He brought me to this quiet little bar,
He got me a few drinks
Said that we should take a ride
I said, ?Tell me your name before we go too far.?
He smiled and kinda laughed
And then he paid our bill
Askin?, ?Why do girls always gotta know??
He could tell I was angry
So he looked into my eyes
And said, ?Christopher think it?s time for us to go.?
Chorus:
Christopher
How did you find me that night?
I?d never walked on those paths before
Christopher
What was it about me?
I wish you had told me just a little more
We drove for quite awhile
As time slowly slipped away
My mouth stayed shut cuz I couldn?t trust my tongue,
He killed the engine
And then he revived my soul
He said, ?You?re the sweetest song I?ve ever sung.?
We ended up at a lighthouse
And we listened to the waves
I let him hold me close but I don?t know why
We talked for hours
But we never spoke a word
That sweet Christopher had taught me how to die
He asked to drive me home
But I had no place like that
He smiled and said, ?My dear, that?s such a shame.?
I said, ?Don?t give me pity,
I think you?ve given me enough.?
And I walked away as my mind screamed out his name
