SHE'S IN 411
(Carole Smith / Sonny James)


Sonny James - 1964


Hours pass, lights flash, she's in four-eleven

Words I said in anger, words I didn't mean
'Caused my love in anger to cry and run from me
She was struck down by a car, I've been here since seven
Walkin' up and down these halls, she's in four-eleven

Hours pass, lights flash, nurses come and go
Please God help her, for I love her so
She is all I want on earth, all I want in Heaven
Let her live to forgive, she's in four-eleven

I can't say I'm sorry, visitors not allowed
Time can move so slowly waitin' with a crowd
If she lives till break of day they say hope is given
Meanwhile I can walk and pray outside four-eleven

Hours pass, lights flash, nurses come and go
Please let her hear me say I love her so
Let me keep her near, I need her so
She's in four-eleven
