61 Minutes Of Pleading lyrics

As the blood flowed
Lorraine knew
That there`d be nobody coming
Nobody`s coming
As the blood flowed
Lorraine knew
That there`d be nobody coming

The call came in
Lorraine shot down
Her husband pulled the trigger
And then he blew his brains out
At the other end
The police took a call
They didn`t believe
That he was dead at all
So they wouldn`t help her
And she knew

It had been 20 years
Since they fell in love
He`s brought a lot of pain
But now he`s brought a lot of blood
And he`s taken more
Than his share

We can`t lose a life
The police chief said
There`s an armed man in there
Who`d be better off dead
As Lorraine bled from the legs

And as the blood flowed
Lorraine knew
That there`d be nobody coming
Nobody`s coming
As the blood flowed Lorraine knew
That there`d be nobody coming

Speak to me now
But all she could say
Was, I don`t want to die like this
So they said they`re on their way
But they never heard
That she was Lorraine
So they didn`t let her die
With even her name
As she left us all in pain

And as the blood flowed
Lorraine knew
That there`d be nobody coming
Nobody`s coming
As the blood flowed
Lorraine knew
That there`d be nobody coming
