[THE OBSERVER]
How did it happen?
Once it was all so clear
How did you get so far off the track?
Why can't you turn around and go back?
How did it happen?
Where was the moment?
When did the road behind disappear?
Where did you let things slip out of gear?
How did you ever get to be here?
[THE WIFE]
Could I leave you?
How could I leave you?
How could I go it alone?
Could I wave the years away
With a quick goodbye?
How do you wipe tears away
When your eyes are dry?
Sweetheart, lover
Could I recover?
Give up the joys I have known?
Not to fetch your pills again
Every day at five
Not to give those dinners for ten
Elderly men
From the U.N.—
How could I survive?
