Even touching dundee

Even Touching Dundee
Never thought I'd hear those words
Mother's voice is choked with tears
I couldn't even raise my voice
Stood dumb, silent on the phone

I just heard the news on the radio
It can't be true i can't think straight
Subtlety is far too loud
I'd never heard her name before
I couldn't bring myself to look
Down the page at other news

I just heard the news on the radio
It can't be true i can't think straight
