lyrics

There was this lady from my past
Her name was Sarah, didn't last
because the aliens got her first
She had this hair, a brilliant red
But now it's green and weird instead
And she's all crazy, it's the worst

I haven't thought of her in
quite some time, you know, 'cause I'm
a busy guy, but I heard she's comin' back
And as I read about the
feature set, I can't forget
the day we left her during the attack

Whoa-oh-oh-oh Kerrigan
You've been lost for so long
But now I care again
It's why I'm singin' this song
And all that time we spent was great
back in 1998
It's like I'm there again
Oh Kerrigan

The day draws near, it's almost time
I save some money, wait in line
for one more chance to set things right
And I hear they took away our LAN
But I think I'll still be a fan
until the reapers take my life (again)

I still remember when you
said to me you did not need
a knight in shining armor by your side
Well I can safely say that my
armor's gross, and my knighthood's mostly
fictional, so we can let it slide

Now Arcturus did ensure us that he'd
save you, not enslave you for his
scheme and let those demons get
Tarsonis with a bonus known as

Kerrigan
And you've been out there since then
But now I care again
I will find you, and when I do
I will try to change the fate
they assigned you in 1998.
It wasn't fair of them
Oh Kerrigan

And when I think of you, I dare to say
that all I see are shades of grey
and anyway, they never stay for long
And as I gun down your forsaken friends
I wonder if to make amends
by making sure your new life ends is wrong
But I don't really care much right now
I will fix this mess I made
when I followed that psychopath
who left you as a shade of grey
A faded image
A memory
Just a ghost

As years go by we change and grow
But there are some things that we know
we've left unfinished on our plate
And some day a moment happens when
we need to face those things again
Inside we hope it's not too late

Now as the swarm approaches
I can see tranquility
beyond the raging demons of the night
If I'm alive tomorrow
I can say I fought today
to carry you from darkness to the light

Whoa-oh-oh-oh Kerrigan
You've been lost for so long
But now I care again
And I will bring you along
if I am let out of this place
And we'll forget your fall from grace
And we'll be square again
Oh Kerrigan

Oh Kerrigan
I've been lost for so long without you
Kerrigan
It's why I'm singin' this song about you
Everything was great
back in 1998
It's like I'm there again
And I'll declare again
that now I care again
about Kerrigan
