mary
The frost outside melted by my lonesome cigarette
And the burning thoughts parade my mind of the night that we first met
Oh Mary, Mary, Mary, how I love the thought of you
And I'm high off the pain and the sleepless nights you put me through
And as if a distant echo spoke to me through sleeting rain
The image of your face is something now I face again
And the taste of cheap champagne and I couldn't wait to take you home
Toss and turn in bed each night because now I sleep alone
Oh Mary Mary Mary please, come back to me
Praying's not my strong suit, but I don't have much to hold onto otherwise
besides your eyes
In a deep dark sleep I'm dreaming of you calling out my name
But it just don't sound the same as it sounded here with me
Oh Mary, Oh Mary
Your heart in part with those brown eyes was a match I'd wished I'd meet
From the moment that you spoke I knew you'd be a part of me
So we took a drive in my '99 and I showed you the heart you held
And in my head I swore to you until God's final bell
So we hitched up quick and we settled in a ditch just south of 36
You held to me so tightly and you swore you'd never quit
And with my strong arms and your strong heart we kept our place in life
Babe I swear I can't forget the days you were my why
Oh Mary, Mary, Mary, please
Come back to me
Mary if you're out there listen to my solemn words
I'll find the man who drove that night and took you from this Earth
And he won't leave so easily as he did to you that day
For Mary in that moment he took the best thing God ever gave me
So I rest my head here gently on the tombstone of your grave
And fondly I remember all the love you never gave
Cause Mary you had changed my life and made all the work worthwhile
And every waking breath now I am haunted by your smile
And the burning thoughts parade my mind of the night that we first met
Oh Mary, Mary, Mary, how I love the thought of you
And I'm high off the pain and the sleepless nights you put me through
And as if a distant echo spoke to me through sleeting rain
The image of your face is something now I face again
And the taste of cheap champagne and I couldn't wait to take you home
Toss and turn in bed each night because now I sleep alone
Oh Mary Mary Mary please, come back to me
Praying's not my strong suit, but I don't have much to hold onto otherwise
besides your eyes
In a deep dark sleep I'm dreaming of you calling out my name
But it just don't sound the same as it sounded here with me
Oh Mary, Oh Mary
Your heart in part with those brown eyes was a match I'd wished I'd meet
From the moment that you spoke I knew you'd be a part of me
So we took a drive in my '99 and I showed you the heart you held
And in my head I swore to you until God's final bell
So we hitched up quick and we settled in a ditch just south of 36
You held to me so tightly and you swore you'd never quit
And with my strong arms and your strong heart we kept our place in life
Babe I swear I can't forget the days you were my why
Oh Mary, Mary, Mary, please
Come back to me

I'll find the man who drove that night and took you from this Earth
And he won't leave so easily as he did to you that day
For Mary in that moment he took the best thing God ever gave me
So I rest my head here gently on the tombstone of your grave
And fondly I remember all the love you never gave
Cause Mary you had changed my life and made all the work worthwhile
And every waking breath now I am haunted by your smile
