My Baby's Grave
Seven years of snow
Seven years of rain
Seven years Westminster Acres
Still looks the same.
Forty-seven stones
Peppered by the sky
Silent now, but I heard something
Sounded like a sigh.
Did I lose something
I wanted to save
Standing at
My baby's grave
Held you in my arms
Like a baby doll
Your head flopped around. I couldn't
Bear to let it fall.
No sign of life.
Nothin I could prove.
Still I swear that for a moment
I saw you move.
I yearn for a cry
A response I crave
Standing at
My baby's grave
Your life began
Long before my own
Felt you there for me
When I was alone
Glad to see your face
For a little while
Even while I wept, you know, it
Kind of made me smile.
Did I take
Everything you gave
Standing at
My baby's grave
