National TV – a Lament for Anneli Alderton And if we captured that moment In the tree rings Picked up and touched The worn river pebbles Found the altered pattern In the blackbird’s nest Saw the runaway fear In the fox’s footprints Oh but we watched you On national TV On a train In a police check scene Combin’ your pretty blonde hair For the men to see In the window of a night train ooh ooh On the TV screen How do the May tree seeds know To let go and fly And the turtles return When thirty years has passed by What brings the whale from the deep When the sailors cry Why couldn’t we Hear the riverbed call out At your demise When we could watch you On national TV On a train In a police check scene Combin’ your pretty blonde hair For the men to see In the window of a night train ooh ooh On the TV screen We’d see you there Caught in a moment Caught in a moment In the before Caught in a moment And in the after In the before Caught in a moment And in the after Oh but we watched you On national TV On a train In a police check scene Combin’ your pretty blonde hair For the men to see In the window of a night train On a TV screen In the window of a night train On the TV screen  Bennett/Brown/Coe/Klein
