I put her in to the car seat
Clipped her seat belt on
She opened her eyes briefly
Daddy will we be long
Who would have thought
A few moments would pass
An impact from nowhere
we stopped spinning on the grass
Sara was moaning
In the seat next to mine
To the best of my knowledge
I appeared fine
I turned to the back seat
It was so quiet back there
Oh God I can see Karen's body
Hanging from the chair
The radio was playing silent night
I could only stare at her face
My precious little angel
Held there in space
The drunk that hit us
Had a small cut on his head
The paramedic said he threw up
When he learnt our daughter was dead
He was fined for drunk driving
Received a Restriction for a year
While we were handed life sentences
At a cost so dear
We don't talk much
What is there to say
Karen was the light of our life
Now the lights gone away
The Marriage only lasted
The rest of that year
Sara overdosed on pain killers
She had Manic depression I hear
