Now I know
                    I did not know
                    Three months ago
                    I would lower you
                    On this Saturday morn
                    And stand now, broken hearted
                    With sorrow yet guilty relief
                    That you had quietly parted
                    And wonder,  will I grieve so much more
                    When I have grieved so much before

                    I did not know
                    Six months ago
                    When I lowered you
                    On that Saturday morn
                    That I would grieve our first born
                    Who lies with you for us now to mourn
                    And once again with my heart so torn
                    With you in my mind
                    And some meaning of this life to find

                    I did not know
                    One year ago
                    When I lowered you
                    On that Saturday morn
                    A Little Dog and I
                    On a motorbike would ride
                    Australia. Our dream, it did not die
                    With you in my mind
                    And adventures in this life to find
