This is an excellent song. I saw her in concert when I was 11. She sang this song, and at the end of the song they had a "grave" raise onto the stage. I didn't really understand the meaning until later, and later find that this song hits so close to home. AIDS is what split my family up, essentially. Wildestdream is right - it doesn't matter how careful you are, one chance taken. Very sad, but excellent song.

I heard part of the song and couldent help but keep having it run throught my head its a very powerful song and should be a warning to young wild people to be careful
