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
Then he blew his brains out
At the other end
The police took a call
But 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
Now he´s brought a lot of blood
And he´s taken more
Than he ever should have done
She kept losing 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
Cos they said they were on their way
But they never heard
That she was Lorraine
And they let her die there
Without 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
