I sat down last night and thought of all I've heard, its not much, but its from me
“It Was Me”
It was me
That kissed you Good Bye this morning
As I headed off to work
It was me
That waved to you, neighbor,
As I headed down the street
You stood there as always saying
“I wish I had your job
only working two days a week”
It was me
That waved to the kids at the school
Playing without a care
Waiting for the bell to ring
Enjoying the early morning air
It was me
That loved coming to work
A perfect job, with great partners
Always friends, we needed each other
It was me
That you saw jump on the engine
The lights on, sirens screaming
Heading for another job
But today was different
It was me
That was rushing in the door
While you were coming out
Telling me “Good Luck”
Climbing the stairs
While others came down
“Down is Good”
It was me
That stopped on 31
Only 40 or 50 floors to go
We need to help them up there
Must go for the top
It was me
That yelled “MayDay”
Into the radio
The buildings’ coming down
Only one thought “God help us all”
It was me
No it was many that were lost
On this fateful day
Doing what we loved to do
Fighting fires, Saving lives
Today will change for many
Families, Friends, & Strangers
But do not mourn, do not cry,
Look up into the cool night sky
That shooting star
A flickering light
It was me
