Every Parents Nightmare
Pacing back and forth
Another look at the clock
Time is flying quickly
Where ever can they be
Go to the door
Look up and down the street
Your heart beating faster
Where ever can they be
Frantic phone calls made
To friends and Family
Have you seen them today
Where ever can they be
A knock on the door
A policeman standing there
Your heart missing beats
Where ever can they be
Your mind is spinning
Words are unclear
Accident, Hospital, Serious
Whatever can it mean
The journey goes so slowly
I wish I could travel at speed
Why don't they travel faster
I need to be there now
My little one's lying
Tubes and machines everywhere
Let me exchange places
Let me take their place
Things you should have said
Things you should have done
Its all to late to rectify
The things that happened past
You kiss your little angel
And say your last farewell
As slowly to heaven they ascend
To leave you wondering why
Nobody can feel
The pain you feel
No words of comfort
Can help
As the night begins to fall
You look heavenly in the skies
Looking for the brightest star
The one you know so well
Goodnight my little angel
You have never left my side
My heart is always with you
And my love will never die
