How can you sat there and asked me what's wrong
If I told you would it mattered anyway
But if you must know I'll tell it won't take very long
I saw a man dying today

The torture expression on the face of this man
It's the picture that won't go away
I'm tryin' to forget it but I don't think I can
If I saw a man dying today

It happened this morning when I looked in the mirror
After you said you were going away
So don't be surprised at the pain in my eyes
I saw a man dying today

[ steel - fiddle ]
It happened this morning...
I saw a man dying today
