Widow Weeds - Marc Almond[00:00:00]

Written by：Bill McGee/Marc Almond[00:00:01]

She draped herself in widow weeds[00:00:09]

Veil of black and buttoned sleeves[00:00:12]

Hid her face from the world[00:00:15]

A shadow where once had been a girl[00:00:18]

Her husband of past twenty years[00:00:30]

Had passed away leaving her in tears[00:00:34]

Heart full of the futures fears[00:00:37]

She kneels beside his grave[00:00:40]

Where should be colour every day[00:00:48]

Just widow weeds her friends all say[00:00:54]

Please stop your tears and throw away[00:00:57]

Those widow weeds of black and grey[00:01:00]

Then she did wail a chilling sound[00:01:12]

Beat her fists and hit the ground[00:01:16]

She moaned his name she pulled her hair[00:01:23]

She chanted verse and muttered prayer[00:01:26]

How could a man so just so good[00:01:30]

Leave her a widow like he could[00:01:33]

Where should be colour every day[00:01:41]

Just widow weeds her friends all say[00:01:46]

Please stop your tears and throw away[00:01:50]

Those widow weeds of black and grey[00:01:53]

And deep within chador of lace[00:02:05]

The deep etched sorrow on her face[00:02:08]

This madonna in her cowl of grief[00:02:12]

Subservient in her belief[00:02:15]

Then came the reading of the will[00:02:23]

Grief had hold within her still[00:02:26]

But unable to believe her ears[00:02:29]

She stopped her sobbing halted tears[00:02:33]

Not a penny not a pound[00:02:40]

No provision to be found[00:02:43]

Not a thought of recognition[00:02:47]

The will was read with cold precision[00:02:50]

Anger jumped up in her breast[00:03:02]

Well maybe this was for the best[00:03:05]

Even as the will was blessed[00:03:09]

She tore away her veil[00:03:12]

Tears of rage to tears of joy[00:03:19]

No more grief from deaths envoy[00:03:22]

No more weeping gnashing teeth[00:03:25]

No more prostrate with grief[00:03:29]

She thought he loved her[00:03:48]

So[00:03:51]

Sure he loved her[00:03:52]

She thought he loved her[00:03:55]

So sure he loved her[00:03:58]

But all his treasure all his wealth[00:04:03]

Just signify love for himself[00:04:10]

Just signify love for himself[00:04:16]

The chador fell unto the earth[00:04:24]

Witness a womans rebirth[00:04:31]

Witness a womans rebirth[00:04:38]

She exorcised griefs ugly demon[00:04:44]

With a new found sense of freedom[00:04:52]

Where should be colour[00:05:03]

Every day[00:05:06]

Just widow weeds now[00:05:09]

She can say[00:05:11]

She stopped her tears[00:05:12]

And threw away[00:05:16]

Those widow weeds of black and grey[00:05:19]

Widow[00:05:22]
