She Walks Alone

She spent the last of her teenage years
At home alone with her worst fears
And when the telegraph came
She did not know who to blame
She walks alone, she walks alone
She walks alone, she walks alone
She walks alone, she walks alone
She walks alone, she walks alone, she walks alone
The War that took her husband’s life
It made a widow of his wife
The world came crashing in
She made a haunt to rest with him
She walks alone!
She leaves the flowers on his grave
The last one we forgot to save
A note of long regrets
The pension checks are all she gets
