How Could I Ever Forget?
We were still living downtown...
My black coat thrown over
My blue nightgown...
You drove too fast—
The lights of the city flew past.
How could I ever forget?
Outside the morning
Was cool and wet.
He had such chills...
But still—he lay there so still.
Just eighteen months old...
So cold...
We ran him inside,
Lost, worrying, wondering.
That hospital room—
That gloom—
How could I ever forget?
Screaming at doctors—
Alarmed, upset.
They said to wait, [Diana—don't.]
They never said
We were too late.
But I was child... [So many years ago...]
Raising a child. [So much we could not know...]
Those weeks full of joy...
Then a moment of dread—
Someone simply said
Your child... is...
How could I ever forget?
This was the moment
My life was set.
Dan & Diana:
That day that I lost you—
It's clear as the day we met.
How could I ever forget
My black coat thrown over
My blue nightgown...
You drove too fast—
The lights of the city flew past.
How could I ever forget?
Outside the morning
Was cool and wet.
He had such chills...
But still—he lay there so still.
Just eighteen months old...
So cold...
We ran him inside,
Lost, worrying, wondering.
That hospital room—
That gloom—
How could I ever forget?
Screaming at doctors—
Alarmed, upset.
They said to wait, [Diana—don't.]
They never said
We were too late.
But I was child... [So many years ago...]
Raising a child. [So much we could not know...]
Those weeks full of joy...
Then a moment of dread—
Someone simply said
Your child... is...
How could I ever forget?
This was the moment
My life was set.
Dan & Diana:
That day that I lost you—
It's clear as the day we met.
How could I ever forget
