Widow in the Window Lyrics

Waiting for the nightengale to sing
Waiting for the harbour lights to dim
I've been on the outside looking in
While the widow in the window waits for him

But he won't be back
Can't you realize that?
And he's laughing at your sorrow

Waiting for a ship that won't come in
Waiting for a tear to reach her chin
I'm knockin' but she will not let me in

Chorus:
And he won't be back
Can't you realize that
And he's laughing at your sorrow
How can I explain
Your love is all in vain
While he wastes your precious hours
I could fill your days with flowers

How can I replace the smile upon a face
Of a lover that I can never be
How can I begin to make you love again
And try to make you see
