How to Save a Life Lyrics by Grey’s Anatomy Cast

Grey’s Anatomy: The Music Event

2011

[Owen Hunt:]
Step one, you say we need to talk
He walks, you say sit down; it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
[Meredith Grey:]
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came
[Teddy Altman:]
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness, and
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known
How to save a life
[Mark Sloan:]
Let him know that you know best
‘Cause after all, you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
[Arizona Robbins:]
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
[Miranda Bailey:]
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you
[Lexie Grey:]
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
[Lexie Grey & April Kepner:]
Somewhere along in the bitterness, and
[Lexie Grey, April Kepner & Alex Karev]
I would have stayed up
With you all night
Had I known how to save a life
[Callie Torres:]
As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came
[All:]
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness, and
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness, and
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
[All:]
How to save a life
How to save a life
[All:]
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness, and
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
[All:]
How to save a life
How to save a life
[Callie Torres]
How to save a life
