Jez Lowe - Last of the Widows lyrics
The last of the widows of the Duck Bill seam Is lying tonight with her young man again They're clinging fast together soothing sighs and pain And coaxing back the love their loss survived The last of the widows of the Duck Bills flare Is brushing back dust from his strong brown hair And he's stretched on her bosom with his love laid fair And making up for time fate stole away Parting words were never spoken last kisses never broken She never even watched him walk away Now the last of the widows of the Duck Bill's seam Reached out and took his hand again today The last of the widows of the Duck Bill's fire Stood bleak and bewildered as the count climbed higher Then she wept for the world across a newsroom wire When she heard his name called out across the crowd But when the world had turned to leave eighty women turned to grieve And cursed their compensation through their tears Now the last of the widows of the Duck Bills seam Can close her eyes and wipe away the years The last of the widows of the Duck Bill's flame Is free of the lonely nights of bitterness and blame And there's some who'll remember as they speak her name The reason why she lived so long alone And in the fields above the dangers of Gresford, Trimdon Grange Haswell, Hartley Beam and Markham Main The last of the widows of the Duck Bill's seam Is walking with her miner lad again |
