The day it all happened I remember it so well And this is a story, I almost can't bear to tell The sun shone through my windows The birds filled the sky with song It was the kind of day Where nothing could go wrong I kissed all of my babies I headed out the door Told my husband I love him He said I love you more I was driving down the highway When I saw a flashing light I looked up and saw billows of smoke, darker than the night I froze and glanced around in panic Then I heard the screams A thousand daggers in my chest, praying they were bad dreams But these were no dreams This was a nightmare Crimson flames danced everywhere Then I caught it In my eye More planes were plummeting by The rest was such a blur All the months after were too obscure But no one has ever been the same way As moments before that fateful day...
