lyrics

She’s been lost in desperation.
This fight is trying to get the best of her.
She’s been longing for some comfort,
Waiting for a day that she just cannot see.
Will this season end?
I don’t know when.

She remembers how he held her.
She remembers all their broken dreams.
On the nights of your betrayal
Did you know the torment surging underneath,
Where the fragments lie?
These are the ghosts of love.

Who will give the widow sleep tonight?
Underneath the willow tree she cries...
“Oh, I’ve been cast away.
My lover, where have you gone?”

By the rivers of their captors
They sat and wept at the thought of all they’d known.
Now at the water’s edge,
Songs of joy have no home.

Who will give the widow sleep tonight?
Underneath the willow tree she cries...
“Oh, I’ve been cast away.
My lover, where have you gone?”

And if it takes a long time to walk through your sorrows,
Know that I’ll be here.
And if it makes a difference, I’ll still be here tomorrow.
You’re not in this alone.

Who will give the widow sleep tonight?
Underneath the willow tree she cries...
“Oh, I’ve been cast away.
My lover, where have you gone?”

I remember the last time I saw you
In this life,
Sitting at your table of bread and wine.
Does time stand still in heaven,
Or does it move on?
We’ve been waiting
For so long.
