lyrics

Mary, Mary

Oh Mary, Mary
Tear my heart off my sleeve
And carry, carry
Carry my heart to the sea
Don’t you let it get stranded
On the barrier reef
For I just had it mended
at the Bar & Grill Infirmary

Oh I’m not saying that you are the one
No, I’m just saying the demons have gone
Since you’re here
They won’t come near
Oh Mary, stay with me

Oh Mary, Mary
I put all my trust in you
You can bury, bury
The things for which I have no use
All the skins that I’ve shed
And some dispositions too
All the doubts that I’ve had
Fifteen years of self-abuse

Oh I’m not saying that you are the one
No, I’m just saying the demons have gone
Since you’re here
They won’t come near
Oh Mary, stay with me

Oh Mary, Mary
There’s nothing I would rather do
Than marry, marry
A woman half as good as you
Ah but Mary, Mary
That would be a first
For me to do
Exactly as I should

Oh I’m not saying that you are the one
No, I’m just saying the demons have gone
Since you’re here
They won’t come near
Oh Mary, stay with me
Oh Mary, stay with me
Oh Mary, stay with me
