Sailor And Widow

He was a sailor

A sailor at sea and a sailor of love

And he thought he could save her

Save her from innocence up and above

\'cause he never knew freedom and under the duvet

He stayed for a lifetime without any government

Help or assistance

She was a widow

She never left home before seven a.m.

And she looked by the window

She managed to cry but she never felt blame

For the death of her husband who died in a flame by the house of the river

Although he remained

In a reasonable distance

All the children played around the neighborhood

All the children played around the neighborhood

The children she liked to invent for the life they were living was openly bent

All they had was each other

He brought her flowers

A flesh in the pan as she didn\'t reply

And he waited for hours

Until she accepted to offer a smile

And a terrible whiskey she had for a while

That she\'d sip every morning for breakfast and sigh

Since the month of December

They used to tango

Jump and parade until midnight or more

She convinced him to Fargo

Drink lemonade with some awkward liquor

The she kissed him goodbye and attended the shore

Where she lit a big fire like never before

By the house of the river

All the children played around the neighborhood

All the children played around the neighborhood

The children she liked to invent for the life they were living was openly bent

All they had was each other

She was a widow, again

She never left home before seven a.m.

And she looked by the window

She managed to cry but she never felt blame

For the death of her husband who died in a flame by the house of the river

Although he remained

In a reasonable distance

All the children played around the neighborhood

All the children played around the neighborhood

The children she liked to invent for the life they were living was openly bent

All she had was herself
