Widow’s Walk

[ti:Widow’s Walk] [ar:Suzanne Vega] [al:Songs In Red And Gray] [by:季风网-【http://www.ip21.cn】] [offset:0] Artist：suzanne vega Songs Title：widow’s walk Consider me a widow boys and I will tell you why Its not the man but its the marriage that was drowned So I walk the walk and wait with watchful eye out to the sky Looking for a kind of vessel I have never found Though I saw it splinter I keep looking out to sea Like a dog with little sense I keep returning To the very area where I did see the thing go down As if theres something at the site I should be learning That line is the horizon We watch the wind and set the sail But save ourselves when all omens Point to fail If I tell the truth then I would have to tell you this; Though I grieve （and I believe I feel it truly） I knew that ship was empty by the time it hit the rocks Cause we could not hold on when fate became unruly So consider me a widow boys and I have told you why Does the weather say a better day is nearing Il put my house in order now and wait upon the will Cause its clear that I need better skill in steering That line is the horizon We watch the wind and set the sail But save ourselves when omens All point to fail Suzanne vega c feb 2000
