Gone, But Not Forgotten is a 1993 novel written by attorney Phillip Margolin and set in Portland, Oregon. In 2004, the book was adapted to a television miniseries starring Brooke Shields as Betsy Tannenbaum and Lou Diamond Phillips as Alan Page. Rather than being set in Portland the miniseries was set in Sacramento, California.
Elizabeth "Betsy" Tannenbaum is a successful defense lawyer coming off a domestic violence case win when she is hired by reclusive and mysterious businessman Martin Darius to defend him against allegations that he murdered several women and a private investigator and dumped the bodies at a construction site. Unfortunately, Darius' past misdeeds are revealed and Betsy is in a race against time to find out who the real killer is before he — or she — strikes again.
Chorus: I am not forgotten I am not forgotten I am not forgotten God knows my name he knows my name
Verse: Light over darkness strength over weakness joy over sadness he knows my name father to the fatherless friend to the friendless hope for the hopeless he knows my name
Bridge: I will praise you I will praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made
Vamp: I am not forgotten never forsaken
Reprise of Not Forgotten
Do you realize that you're alive at the greatest time in history
I am not forgotten
I am not forgotten
I am not forgotten
God knows my name
He knows my name
Light over darkness
Strength over weakness
Joy over sadness
He knows my name
Father to the fatherless
Friend to the friendless
Hope for the hopeless
He knows my name
I will praise you
I will praise you
It's still tonight under the stars,
The wind is calm, no windows barred.
All birds sleep sound, back from afar,
And all the land is at peace.
The morning rose upon that day,
Our son from us was taken away.
And all the children that died that day,
For that, there is no cause.
You plan and execute with speed,
Your moral code is all you heed,
It's agony to lose loved ones, I know,
But an eye for an eye makes everyone blind,
And we will not be forgotten in time.
No one will hear our voice it seems,
Afraid of reprisals or impeding peace.
No one's been convicted of these deeds,
A miscarriage of government and police.
They've governed and they have swept it away,
They've executed and gone to the pub all day.
Have you acted in your virtuous way?
For peace we all have to wait till it's gotten,
Had the peace talks, had they all gone rotten. No!
And haven't enough people died?
You buried it so deep
so safe in hidden sleep
But like a tell-tale corpse
rises to the surface
over-ripe & bloated
in naked time-lapsed truth
Thought it was lost forever
Remember this
How long has it been
or have you forgotten
when you first forgot?
Now resurrection the phoenix
aflame with pride & conceit
Remembers this
Wind blown trees outside
applauding like the ocean
to the cacophony inside
The waves come rushing in
A crashing whispering
drowning they drink me
Ah not forgotten
This is not forgotten
Not Forgotten
Love is bigger than oceans
Love is given to me
Grace is bigger than history
Grace is given for free
And we'll keep the flame, ablaze
He, will not, be forgotten, be forgotten
He, will not, be forgotten, be forgotten
Faith is bigger than glory
Faith is stronger than pain
Hope is higher than rainbows
Hope is all that we've got
And we'll keep the flame, ablaze
You, will not, be forgotten, be forgotten
Your ambition has been disrupted
Young minds so easily corrupted
The system is fighting itself
A fatal blow shall be dealt
Thrown into the tide of uncertainty
Have your dreams smashed completely
The norm dictates your future for you
Hopelessness and despair
Face the grim reality
Individual concerns
Eclipse the world's humanity
Corruption won't dissipate
It's standing in your path
Our leaders chase their tails
Frightened by subversive wrath
Thrown into the tide of uncertainty
Have your dreams smashed completely
The norm dictates your future for you
Hopelessness and despair
Face the grim reality
Individual concerns
Eclipse the world's humanity
Redemption is at hand
Your scheme has taken form
We will take the final step
And instigate reform
Thrown into the tide of uncertainty
Have your dreams smashed completely
The norm dictates your future for you
Hopelessness and despair
Face the grim reality
Individual concerns
Eclipse the world's humanity
Looking the other way
Solves nothing of our problems
Take the step and unite
Tomorrow will not be forgotten
I am no mother
I am no father
just a little one
not forgotten
born on your shoulders
never grow older
just a little one
not forgotten
chorus
there are no tears
no sadness found
cause only love
can make a cound
we are many
as the stars
so few to linger
here for so long
no flesh and bones
no clothes no home
just a little one
not forgotten
chorus
I pray for you
please pray for me
forever thru
eternity
It's still tonight under the stars,
The wind is calm, no windows barred.
All birds sleep sound, back from afar,
And all the land is at peace.
The morning rose upon that day,
Our son from us was taken away.
And all the children that died that day,
For that, there is no cause.
You plan and execute with speed,
Your moral code is all you heed,
It's agony to lose loved ones, I know,
But an eye for an eye makes everyone blind,
And we will not be forgotten in time.
No one will hear our voice it seems,
Afraid of reprisals or impeding peace.
No one's been convicted of these deeds,
A miscarriage of government and police.
They've governed and they have swept it away,
They've executed and gone to the pub all day.
Have you acted in your virtuous way?
For peace we all have to wait till it's gotten,
Had the peace talks, had they all gone rotten. No!
And haven't enough people died?
And no! the victims will not be forgotten in time.
You buried it so deep
So safe in hidden sleep
But like a tell-tale corpse
Rises to the surface
Over-ripe & bloated
In naked time-lapsed truth
Thought it was lost forever
Remember this
How long has it been
Or have you forgotten
