Mary's Comfort

I guess it's weird
When you don't know
I'm sitting here
Got nowhere to go
People talk
The words cut like knives
It keeps them from looking
At their own lives
From looking at their lives

They're passing by
Every day
Silent strangers
Moving on their way
I see the fear
And I feel sad
There was a time
It would make me mad
I was always mad

Look at the old tree
It's been standing there for ages
Protecting me
I stare into the flame
Waiting for somebody who knows my name

I see her light
Feel her love
Mary's comfort and joy
I've been dreaming of
Sit with me
Nowhere to go
We'll be safe till the morning comes
Till the morning comes

Look at the old tree
It's been standing there for ages
Protecting me
I stare into the flame
Waiting for somebody who knows my name

I saw you
And you saw me
And we don't know
When the next time will be
Ain't it strange
How people touch
Sometimes it only takes that much
It only takes that much
