He was a sailor A sailor at sea and a sailor of love And he thought he could save her Save her from innocence up and above 'cause he never knew freedom and under the duvet He stayed for a lifetime without any government Help or assistance
She was a widow She never left home before seven a.m. And she looked by the window She managed to cry but she never felt blame For the death of her husband who died in a flame by the house of the river Although he remained In a reasonable distance
All the children played around the neighborhood All the children played around the neighborhood The children she liked to invent for the life they were living was openly bent
All they had was each other
He brought her flowers A flesh in the pan as she didn't reply And he waited for hours Until she accepted to offer a smile And a terrible whiskey she had for a while That she'd sip every morning for breakfast and sigh Since the month of December
They used to tango Jump and parade until midnight or more She convinced him to Fargo Drink lemonade with some awkward liquor The she kissed him goodbye and attended the shore Where she lit a big fire like never before By the house of the river
All the children played around the neighborhood All the children played around the neighborhood The children she liked to invent for the life they were living was openly bent All they had was each other
She was a widow, again She never left home before seven a.m. And she looked by the window She managed to cry but she never felt blame For the death of her husband who died in a flame by the house of the river Although he remained In a reasonable distance
All the children played around the neighborhood All the children played around the neighborhood The children she liked to invent for the life they were living was openly bent All she had was herself
