Phillips Anthony - The Women Were Watching слова песни
They saw the flags, it didn`t look so badthey heard the news and how we could not loseAnd they sang with the marching bandThe sailors` wives with anxious eyesBut it impressed them tooThey even cheered up as the ships pulled clearAnd though it was no-one`s faultThat men went off to warI saw a thousand faces all along the shore...The women were watchingSo no-one thought of turning backHe didn`t fight for his country`s prideHis life was sold cos it was better than the doleHe even waved as they sent him awayBut something`s changed - no this is not a gameShe held his hand and it was cold and dampShe couldn`t hide from the feelings insideCos in the storm the night beforeShe heard him calling... goodbye goodbye goodbyeWon`t you give me a smileI could be gone for a long long whileAnd though it was no-one`s faultThat he had to go to warAmong a thousand faces all along the shoreA woman was watchingHe never thought of turning back
