Widow’s Walk (Acoustic Version) Suzanne Vega

[Verse 1]
Consider me a widow, boys, and I will tell you why
It's not the man but it's the marriage that was drowned
So I walk the walk and wait with watchful eye up to the sky
Looking for a kind of vessel I have never found

[Verse 2]
Though I saw it splinter I keep looking out to sea
Like a dog with little sense I keep returning
To the very area where I did see the thing go down
As if there's something at the site I should be learning

[Chorus]
That line is the horizon
We watch the wind and set the sail
Savе ourselves when all omеns
Point to fail

[Verse 3]
If I tell the truth then I would have to tell you this
Though I grieve and I believe I feel it truly
But I knew that ship was empty by the time it hit the rocks
'Cause we could not hold on when fate became unruly

[Bridge]
So consider me a widow, boys, and I have told you why
Does the weather say a better day is nearing?
I'll set my house in order now and wait upon the will
'Cause it's clear that I need better skill in steering
