Текст (слова) песни: Phillips Anthony - The Women Were Watching
They saw the flags, it didn`t look so bad they heard the news and how we could not lose And they sang with the marching band The sailors` wives with anxious eyes But it impressed them too They even cheered up as the ships pulled clear And though it was no-one`s fault That men went off to war I saw a thousand faces all along the shore... The women were watching So no-one thought of turning back He didn`t fight for his country`s pride His life was sold cos it was better than the dole He even waved as they sent him away But something`s changed - no this is not a game She held his hand and it was cold and damp She couldn`t hide from the feelings inside Cos in the storm the night before She heard him calling... goodbye goodbye goodbye Won`t you give me a smile I could be gone for a long long while And though it was no-one`s fault That he had to go to war Among a thousand faces all along the shore A woman was watching He never thought of turning back
