Tears full of anguish a body broken to its knees
A young widow hears the words
but they don’t give her what she needs
but the priest keeps preaching though his words could never explain
his world of isolation make him foreign to her pain

she pushes the rosary aside
and looks straight into this man’s eyes

You don’t understand the way I feel
That would take some time your life for mine
Words won’t stop the spinning of this wheel
Lets talk of what is real can we talk of what’s real

She turns her head and cries this man can’t sympathize
He talks of opportunity but the truth is he lies
This new elected candidate might try to turn the tide
But she fools herself to thinking that this man is on her side

She pushes the picture to fade
And reaches for the letter she saved
