Widows Peak

You will wait in the widow's peak.

And while you watch the ships come in,

I will take the early train.



And I will take the back streets,

Down to New Orleans,

Before the avenues are swallowed,

By the morning heat.



And you will watch the ships come in.

And I will take the early train.

And I will make it home.



We're stronger where,

The strain had broken us.

And there is fight in us.

I know,



That it will take more than,

A heavy rain,

To silence us,

When there's so much for us.

I know,



You will wait,

At your post until,

You've been relieved,

And warn us all,

If seas are dangerous.



But you should rest,

For a little while.

And I will watch the ships come in.

I'll alert the citizens.



I'll sound the alarm.



We're stronger where,

The strain had broken us.

And there is fight in us.

I know,



That it will take more than,

A heavy rain,

To silence us,

When there's so much for us.

I know,



They've tethered the ships,

In the harbor.

They've anchored the rest,

At sea.



We're stronger than,

Before the strain had broken us.

And there is fight in us.

I know,



We're stronger than,

Before the strain had broken us,

And there is fight in us.

I know,



That it will take more than,

A heavy rain,

To silence us,

When there's so much for us.

I know...
