"Widow In The Window" lyrics
"Widow In The Window"
Waiting for the nightingale to sing
Waiting for the harbour lights to dim
I've been on the outside looking in
While the widow in the window waits for him
But he won't be back
Can't you realise that?
And he's laughing at your sorrow
Waiting for a ship that won't come in
Waiting for a tear to reach her chin
I'm knocking but she will not let me in
And he won't be back
Can't you realise that?
And he's laughing at your sorrow
How can I explain your love is all in vain
While he wastes your precious hours
I could fill your days with flowers
How can I replace the smile upon the face
Of a lover that I can never be
How can I begin to make you love again
I tried to make you see
That he won't be back
Can't you realise that?
And he's laughing at your sorrow
No he won't be back
Can't you realise that?
And hes laughing at your sorrow
How can I explain that your love is all in vain
While he wastes your precious hours
I could fill your days with flowers
Flowers

The Trews - "Not Ready To Go" It's never ending, as far as I know
But there's a doubt you feel, between us both
You're grounded daily, I'm on a cloud

I'm not ready to go
Are you unhappy,...
The Glorious Sons - "Mama" Oh Mama, down by the river
Oh you know I'm a sinner

Tim Hicks - "Stronger Beer" We eat Smarties, you eat M&M's
And you think all our money looks pretend
Ya, we got Bryan Adams, but, hey, you got Bruce Springsteen
But we can drink in bars when we're just nineteen
Yeah

Barenaked Ladies - "Alcohol" Alcohol, my permanent accessory
Alcohol, a party-time necessity
Alchool, alternative to feeling like yourself
O Alcohol, I still drink to your health
I love you more than I did the week before
