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 rain him inside

Lost worrying wondering

That hospital room

That gloom

How could I ever forget
How could I ever forget
Screaming at doctors alarmed upset
God I was so upset
They said to wait
Diana don't
You never said we were too late
But I was a 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
How could I ever forget
This was the moment my life was set
That day that I lost you
It's clear as the day we met

How could I ever forget
