Mary.
Oh when the sun don’t shine.
Your words: they seem to reconcile.
Mary.
I’m not one to forgive.
And nothing. Oh nothing fits.
Mary.
You’ve got the love and love don’t last.
So help me. Won’t you help me smash this glass?
Mary can you help me find a way?
I was down. You came around.
You’re the one who helped me get out.
You’re going to be okay.
I won’t wait for you. I won’t wait for no one.
Smile on my face says I know you aren’t going nowhere.
Mary I don’t care. You wear the crown you look good with it.
Mary I don’t care because I care about you.
Everybody sing!
Mary.
You’re the one who keeps me up at night.
When the race is all but run. Oh Mary.
Tell me when you feel all right.
You’re the one who lit the light. Help me find a way.
Oh Mary! I’m the one who can’t stop thinking about it.
When you sing that song. Oh won’t you, Mary?
Tell me when you feel all right.
You’re the one who lit the light.
As I sing my, sing my, sing my fucking song.
Oh won’t you, Mary?
Why did you have to run away?
We never got to play.
Tonight.
You’re going to be okay.
I won’t wait for you. I won’t wait for no one.
Smile on my face says I know you aren’t going nowhere.
Mary I don’t care. You wear the crown you look good with it.
Mary I don’t care because I care about you.
