The song was inspired by the debut novel 'While No One Was Watching' by Debz Hobbs-Wyatt. Read about it below. Buy the book here: www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00FWRJ80O?ref=dbs_p2d_P_R_popup_yes_alc_T2

'While No One Was Watching' - a psychological thriller by Debz Hobbs-Wyatt:

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22ND,
1963, DALLAS, TEXAS, 12.30PM.

The US President, John F Kennedy, is assassinated as his motorcade hits town, watched by crowds of spectators and the world’s media. Watching too from the grassy knoll nearby is a young mother who, in the confusion, lets go of her daughter’s hand. When she turns around the little girl has vanished. Fifty years later, when everyone remembers what they were doing at that moment in history, she is still missing. Who will remember her?

Local hack Gary Blanchet, inspired by the mother’s story, joins forces with former police psychic Lydia Collins to seek answers. Risking ridicule for their controversial theories and with a classroom shooting close to home to deal with, they re-examine the evidence from that day, study footage and look at the official report for details of witnesses in the JFK case. But this time they’re not looking for a man in a crowd with a gun; they are looking for little Eleanor Boone.

Gone, while no one was watching? Maybe someone was.

lyrics

LYRICS:

(Verse 1)
There’s a moment in time that many of us remember
Back in ’63 during the month of November
An event so big that it made history
And one that’s shrouded in much mystery

(Verse 2)
At precisely half past twelve on the twenty second day
When the eyes of the world all looked the other way
Panic and confusion all around
A child goes missing and is never found

(Chorus)
Many years have gone by
Many tears have been cried
Many questions have been asked
Many thoughts about the past
Many years have gone by
Many tears have been cried
Many questions yet to ask
On that day......
While no one was watching

(Verse 3)
As the pieces of the puzzle slowly come together
A mother and her child; a love that lasts forever
The story of their life starts to unfold
Finally the truth can now be told

(Chorus)
Many years have gone by
Many tears have been cried
Many questions have been asked
Many thoughts about the past
Many years have gone by
Many tears have been cried
Many questions yet to ask
On that day......
While no one was watching
While no one was watching
While no one was watching
