歌曲歌詞
A widowed pair still sitting there
Passing by:the padlocked swings
Wonder if they're late for church
And it's cold so they fasten their coats
And cross the grass they're always last
The roundabout still turning
Ahead they see a small girl
On her way home with a pram
Inside the archway
The priest greets them with a courteous nod
He's close to God
Looking back at days of four instead of two
Years seem so few
Heads bent in prayer
For friends not there
Leaving twopence on the plate
They hurry down the path and through the gate
And wait to board the bus
That ambles down the street
