Twenty years have past
Since her husband was lost at sea
Twenty years she's waited
In hope he'd come back to thee
When she first heard the news
It tore at her heart
The emotions
Threatened to tear her apart
Now she waits everyday
In hopes he will return
Someday maybe someday
She had forsaken all else but this task
Home and work no longer matter to her
They never had children so none to worry about
She just sits and waits drinking from her flask
People have called her crazy
For waiting so long
Some have tried to convince her
That it's time she moved on
But she can not love another
For her heart still belongs to him
So she sits and waits
Until he comes home again
