Widow's Walk Lyrics


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'll set 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
