[00:16.19] He was a sailor
[00:18.07] A sailor at sea and a sailor of love
[00:21.67] And he thought he could save her
[00:22.23] Save her from innocence up and above
[00:24.06] \'cause he never knew freedom and under the duvet
[00:25.96] He stayed for a lifetime without any government
[00:27.11] Help or assistance
[00:32.25]
[00:32.65] She was a widow
[00:34.00] She never left home before seven a.m.
[00:35.65] And she looked by the window
[00:38.03] She managed to cry but she never felt blame
[00:40.04] For the death of her husband who died in a flame by the house of the river
[00:42.65] Although he remained
[00:44.40] In a reasonable distance
[00:45.33]
[00:48.80] All the children played around the neighborhood
[00:51.47] All the children played around the neighborhood
[01:02.65] The children she liked to invent for the life they were living was openly bent
[01:06.68] All they had was each other
[01:10.11]
[01:10.51] He brought her flowers
[01:12.16] A flesh in the pan as she didn\'t reply
[01:13.86] And he waited for hours
[01:16.10] Until she accepted to offer a smile
[01:17.97] And a terrible whiskey she had for a while
[01:18.59] That she\'d sip every morning for breakfast and sigh
[01:20.73] Since the month of December
[01:26.27]
[01:26.77] They used to tango
[01:27.92] Jump and parade until midnight or more
[01:29.64] She convinced him to Fargo
[01:30.98] Drink lemonade with some awkward liquor
[01:33.78] The she kissed him goodbye and attended the shore
[01:35.74] Where she lit a big fire like never before
[01:37.46] By the house of the river
[01:39.85]
[01:42.77] All the children played around the neighborhood
[01:50.83] All the children played around the neighborhood
[01:58.87] The children she liked to invent for the life they were living was openly bent
[02:01.06] All they had was each other
[02:23.87]
[02:36.23] She was a widow, again
[02:38.08] She never left home before seven a.m.
[02:40.00] And she looked by the window
[02:42.04] She managed to cry but she never felt blame
[02:44.03] For the death of her husband who died in a flame by the house of the river
[02:45.58] Although he remained
[02:47.20] In a reasonable distance
[02:53.42]
[02:53.78] All the children played around the neighborhood
[03:00.76] All the children played around the neighborhood
[03:06.10] The children she liked to invent for the life they were living was openly bent
[03:29.38] All she had was herself
