THE MAN WHO DIED HERE SAVED ME
Day 3 (2020). Lyrics by Dan Zlotnick
​
The man who died here saved me
A thousand years ago
A brand new life he gave me
Out in the wind’s his ghost
​
The bridge above the river I’d take my final breath
That’s when I heard my giver, Son, you best watch your step
Sorry but you don’t know me I’ve got nothing left
He said you’re not the only lonely heart bereft
I told you you don’t know, sir, just turn around and leave
So I took one step closer, that’s when he reached for me
​
The rocks beneath his soles fell to the river bed
His body swiftly followed
The wrong man was dead
​
These days I bring my sorrow
The replay in my head
I meant to kill tomorrow but killed the man instead
​
The man who died here saved me
A thousand years ago
A brand new life he gave me
Out in the wind’s his ghost
​
The man who died here saved me
A thousand years ago
A brand new life he gave me
Out in the wind’s his ghost
Out in the wind’s his ghost
Out in the wind’s his ghost
Out in the wind’s his ghost
