VERSE 4:
Speak to me now,
But all she could say,
Was "I don't want to die like this",
So they sit there on their way,
They never heard,
That she was Lorraine,
So they didn't let her die,
With ever her name,
As she left us all in pain,
CHORUS:
And as the blood flowed,
Lorraine knew,
They'd be nobody coming,
Nobody's coming,
As the blood flowed,
Lorraine knew,
That They'd be nobody's coming,
