Lyrics:

Waiting for the nightingale 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 [Chorus 1] But he won't be back Won't you realize that 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 knocking, but she will not let me in [Chorus 2] And he won't be back Can't you realize that 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 Bridge Of a lover that I can never be How can I begin, to make you love again And try to make you see [Chorus 1 2]
