Barry Lawton - A Hole in the World

She left a hole in the world and a baby by the track
She left a motherless daughter to never know what they could have had
Her thinking had clarity and purpose it gave her strength to see it all through
Baby on a blanket mother scattered on earth and heavens to

She left a hole in the world and people stranded on a train
Moaning of missed meetings ignorant to the cause of their complaint
Death should be a leveller but not when you've got a deal to break
Baby screaming babies throwing tantrums on a train

As she drew her final breath you can only wonder if it brought salvation
There's a hole in the world and it's big and wide within their relations

What of the baby now who really gives it a chance
Just another crunched number if they ever gave it a glance
Written off in infancy thrown to the wolves and the breeze
There's a hole in the world and the tear affects both you and me
