Mary May
A bitter cup is where your life was poured from
It wasn't found among the buttercups
Reflections of the lies deep within your eyes
Will any even look there anymore?
Ashes fall like rain back where they came from
When you're gone will anybody notice?
We've all heard whispers from a place that's singing!
O Mary may the sun shine down on you, on you!
O Mary may the sunshine just for you!
You've never seen a smile, but you will in a while
Believe us when we say we're watching over you
O Mary may the sun shine down on you!
O Mary may the sunshine just for you!
Believe us when we say that he still knows your name
And you will shine forever and a day, a day
And though the only thing you knew was darkness, your heart was always reaching for the light
Was it a marvelous thing when you tried to sing?
Does anyone remember how it goes?
In your mind, the stars all join your chorus
Did you know you've never been alone?
The light you sought was also reaching for you only!
O Mary now the sun will shine always!
O Mary now the sun shines on your face!
Your life was not a waste
And you will see his face
O Mary let the sun shine down on you!
O Mary now the sun will shine always!
O Mary now the sun shines on your face!
Like you he was made low, so low, with blood that washed your clothes
O Mary may the sun shine down on you!
O Mary may the sun shine down on you!
O Mary may the sunshine just for you, for you!
Your life's a bitter sea
Still, something shines beneath
O Mary may the sun shine down on you!
It wasn't found among the buttercups
Reflections of the lies deep within your eyes
Will any even look there anymore?
Ashes fall like rain back where they came from
When you're gone will anybody notice?
We've all heard whispers from a place that's singing!
O Mary may the sun shine down on you, on you!
O Mary may the sunshine just for you!
You've never seen a smile, but you will in a while
Believe us when we say we're watching over you
O Mary may the sun shine down on you!
O Mary may the sunshine just for you!
Believe us when we say that he still knows your name
And you will shine forever and a day, a day
And though the only thing you knew was darkness, your heart was always reaching for the light
Was it a marvelous thing when you tried to sing?
Does anyone remember how it goes?
In your mind, the stars all join your chorus
Did you know you've never been alone?
The light you sought was also reaching for you only!
O Mary now the sun will shine always!
O Mary now the sun shines on your face!
Your life was not a waste
And you will see his face
O Mary let the sun shine down on you!
O Mary now the sun will shine always!
O Mary now the sun shines on your face!
Like you he was made low, so low, with blood that washed your clothes
O Mary may the sun shine down on you!
O Mary may the sun shine down on you!
O Mary may the sunshine just for you, for you!
Your life's a bitter sea
Still, something shines beneath
O Mary may the sun shine down on you!
