The Widower Songtext
von Horse Feathers

I′ll mind my craft in a brand new town
There's a dark thing that brought me here
In the time of year when the things you hear
Won′t lay down or disappear

Damn the winter, it's followed me
Waiting for softer times, greener leaves

Stay a while with me
Warm the body that aches here
And leave the sheets alone
Stay a while with me
Warm the body that aches here
And leave the sheets alone

Damn the winter, it's followed me
Waiting for softer times, greener leaves


I may not find another of your kind
I hope this true
May not be a husband that′s set free
I said I do

Stay a while with me
Warm the body that aches here
And leave the sheets alone
Hold a hand with no ring
It′s naked and cold
In a state too shocked to be owned

Stay a while with me
Warm the body that aches here
And leave the sheets alone
Hold a hand with no ring
It's naked and cold
