Song information
Artist: Great Big Sea Album: Sea Of No Cares
Lyrics
(Written by alan doyle / séan mccann / chris trapper)
Waiting for the nightingale to sing Waiting for the harbour lights to dim I've been on the outside lookin' in While the widow in the window waits for him
Chorus 1: 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 2: 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
And he won't be back Can't you realize that? And he's laughing at Your sorrow
Chorus 1 + 2
Flowers (x10)
