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...
