[00:14.89]We were still living downtown
[00:17.66]
[00:19.49]My black coat thrown over my blue nightgown
[00:23.93]
[00:24.47]You drove too fast
[00:26.56]
[00:27.11]The lights of the city flew past
[00:30.24]
[00:33.89]How could I ever forget
[00:37.33]
[00:38.20]Outside the morning was cool and wet
[00:42.13]
[00:42.85]He had such chills
[00:45.25]But still he lay there so still
[00:49.56]
[00:51.02]Just eighteen months old
[00:53.37]
[00:57.08]So cold
[01:00.15]
[01:01.49]We rain him inside
[01:03.95]
[01:05.67]Lost worrying wondering
[01:09.65]
[01:11.97]That hospital room
[01:16.97]
[01:18.34]That gloom
[01:22.48]
[01:24.50]How could I ever forget
[01:26.96]How could I ever forget
[01:29.22]Screaming at doctors alarmed upset
[01:31.22]God I was so upset
[01:33.39]They said to wait
[01:34.38]Diana don't
[01:35.71]You never said we were too late
[01:41.29]But I was a child
[01:42.89]So many years ago
[01:45.80]Raising a child
[01:47.01]So much we could not know
[01:49.91]Those weeks full of joy
[01:52.77]
[01:53.43]Then a moment of dread
[01:56.76]
[01:58.31]Someone simply said
[02:00.75]
[02:03.88]Your child is
[02:08.41]How could I ever forget
[02:10.56]How could I ever forget
[02:12.78]This was the moment my life was set
[02:16.65]That day that I lost you
[02:19.52]It's clear as the day we met
[02:26.98]
[02:28.08]How could I ever forget
