Sad Situation
(Geoff Downes / John Payne)

When you wake, I'll be gone 
Just a space, an empty chair 
And I know, I was wrong 
Just one more time, then I'll be gone 

Who stopped the sky from falling? 
Who held you back from harm? 
Who stood as walls were falling? 
call still guides us on 

It's a sad situation 
And no one's to blame 
It's a sad situation 
Now you're gone 
It's a sad situation 
Which someday may change 
It's a sad situation 
Now you're gone 

In the dawn, turn the page 
We stand alone, as the lions rage 
I suppose we'll move on 
fight of minds, that still breathe strong 

Who stopped the sky from falling? 
Who held you back from harm? 
Who held you close when hurting? 
Who keeps the doves of hope? 

It's a sad situation 
And no one's to blame 
It's a sad situation 
Now you're gone 
It's a sad situation 
Which someday may change 
It's a sad situation 
Now you're gone
