Lyrics for 'Widows Walk' by 'Suzanne Vega'
Consider Me A Widow Boys, And I Will Tell You Why,
It's Not The Man, But It's 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 There's 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?
I'l Put My House In Order Now And Wait Upon The Will,
Cause It's 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
