Mary

Mary, take your big brown eyes and look away

You're searching in vain

Mary take your big red heart and turn around

They'll make you insane

You know you're getting beat in the morning

Spend the night on the tiles

You know you're only searching for glory

But now you've gone and missed it by miles

Mary, take your healing hands and turn around

There's nothing to save

Mary, take you words of love and tear them out

They're starting to fade

You know you're gonna hurt in the morning

Spend the night all alone

You know you're only searching for glory

But now you gotta face it alone

You know you're getting beat in the morning

Spend the night on the tiles

You know you're only searching for glory

But now you've gone and missed it by miles

Mary, you know this life's so sweet

And filled with stuff that ain't yet dead

Mary, you know we both had dreams

But you're the one who got to live them instead
