How Long Must a Woman Mourn / Mad Follies (single 2014)
HOW LONG MUST A WOMAN MOURN
When my first lover left
I cut my hair and I moved away
I must have been a child back then
Couldn ´t stand the thought of growing alone, babe
I thought love was pure and clean
Did you rest your restless head in my arms, babe?
Never thought I would take the blame
Never thought I would feel shame for the love that I gave
How long must a woman mourn
How long must a woman mourn
Before she forgets her first love
MAD FOLLIES
Did you run for the woods when they came for you
And did you loose your family on the way
Did you find peace in a new land
or did you find it dull and gray
You must understand the mad follies of war
Did you find a girl to marry
And did you watch her grow
You know she hurt as much as you
The day she said I have to go
And you must understand the mad follies of love
But you know
It hurts being the one to leave
