I kiss your sunken eyes in a fragranced room You never cried for me, won’t cry for you They say you called my name and if that’s true I couldn’t say goodbye if I wanted to The pit-dust stained your uncles’ faces black Each night you’d scrub the soot from your father’s back Underneath a threadbare Union flag In fields of slag You signed up for the King and packed your bags From a troopship deck at the neck of the Red Sea The Empire’s dying breath swept you to me Dancing at the Drill Hall jamboree Drunken and free I was pregnant at the altar aged sixteen You gave them all you had, they wanted more From Eden’s blood-soaked sand to the factory floor Sixty years of marriage and divorce My heart’s still yours From my blue-eyed soldier boy to the hospice ward From that drunken Drill Hall kiss to the furnace doors
