lyrics

bitter young widow, mourner of dead;
black's not your colour, despite what is said.
and all of our friends may sure raise an eye,
but might i enquire, or ask you tonight?

go swiftly, go softly; into the room;
and there in your arms i surely will swoon.
lie ourselves gently down onto the bed,
and be a distraction for what's in your head.

heartache, leaves us so sore;
we'll make love on the floor;
i'll be the one to make sure you won't freeze,
and you can re-learn how to breathe.

model young mother, sitting at home;
holding the baby that you'll raise alone.
look in his eyes, you see but his dad;
and think of the children that you'll never have.

he wore them so proudly, those medals of war;
and never quite told you what they were for.
but he kissed you, and held you, and went on his way;
and promised to love you 'till his dying day.

heartache leaves us so sore;
we'll make love on the floor.
i'll be the one to make sure you won't freeze;
and you can relearn how to breathe.

don't you pretend to be dead;
just because somebody took him instead.
i can hold you tonight;
and we can make something of this goodbye.

heartache leaves us so sore;
we'll make love on the floor.
