They took you from me that dark night

And I was left to fight my fight.

Tight wrapped in blue, no sound you'd made.

I feel it still, like time replayed.

And I was left to fight my fight.

In tunnel black I scorned the light,

And clawed through mists of blood red pain,

A handhold on my life to gain.

Tight wrapped in blue, no sound you'd made,

Eight days, eight nights, how hard I prayed

To live, to hold you, know your scent,

Just once, and I would be content.

I feel it still, like time replayed

The sting of it will never fade,

Fearing that I could be torn

From my child, my newly born.
