It was December We thought it was a China thing So we kept the merry-making going We showed little or no concern We acted, late and 'premature' Who knew that all nations will face a common threat? When people of all colors suffered, died I had plans, you had plans But 5 months drifted before our eyes Time lost, not much gained Never will we have it back The world has forever changed before my eyes When a situation is beyond your control, ignore it and ride on Focus on what you can do, leave the remaining to untangle itself
