《Sailor’s Wife’s Lament》歌词

[00:00:00] Sailor's Wife's Lament - Purson

[00:00:16] Married a sailor today

[00:00:22] Soon he Is going away

[00:00:27] An albino blackbird

[00:00:31] Nests by her bedside In sympathy

[00:00:40] Waits at the window at night

[00:00:45] The light from the lighthouse Is bright

[00:00:51] It fills her with warm nostalgia

[00:00:55] It's all that she has of him

[00:01:02] All the girls who knocked say come out to play

[00:01:08] All of the boys In the town woo her with wild-berry flowers

[00:01:16] Her lily-white charm

[00:01:19] Just like the bird who's keeping her calm

[00:01:25] Will soon fly away

[00:01:50] Letters so seldom appear

[00:01:56] Her hair's turning Grey with the fear

[00:02:02] Some say she's Insane they say he's to blame

[00:02:07] Still she waits for him

[00:02:13] All the girls who knocked say come out to play

[00:02:18] All of the boys In the town woo her with wild-berry flowers

[00:02:27] Her lily-white charm

[00:02:30] Just like the bird who's keeping her calm

[00:02:36] Will soon fly away
