Never Knew Until It Was Over

I never saw it coming

I never knew what hit me

I didn’t hear a thing

I woke up over there

One moment we were talking

I never had a clue

It was over in a flash

The next thing that I knew

I kept asking for the kids

Guess I never had a chance

The last thing that I remember

Watched them work me from above

I had no time to think

One inch and I’d be dead

As suddenly as it started

I must have turned aside

They said it was a miracle

There was nothing I could do

The next minute he was gone

I heard I was going into shock

I awoke to their sirens

She was just here beside me

I must have been unconscious

I tried to stand but fell back down

I was sure that I was dead

It was over before I knew it

Thank god I don’t remember

I thought it was just my leg

All sudden I was flying

I didn’t realize that I was bleeding

I just talked to her this morning

I didn’t even have time to shout

It came out of nowhere

She kept squeezing on my hand

Didn’t know that I was hurt

Never saw it was too late
