I love the tone that's in your laugh

Gasping for an extra breath

Waiting for the time to pass

I believe in days ahead

Don't spend another night alone

Cross and wishing you were dead



Mary, you shouldn't let 'em make you mad

You hold the best you can

And Mary, after all the pain is gone

I'm always gonna live to be your man



I've had it easy now you see

When i'm down you're always there

Standing by to comfort me

Someday we'll go round the world

I'll make the journey so sublime

I know you're not a travelin' girl



Mary, you shouldn't let 'em make you mad

You hold the best you can

And Mary, after all the pain is gone

I'm always gonna live to be your man



Cause i'd give everything i have

Forget all the things that bring me joy

If you could have one day

Pure and simple happiness

Until that moment comes

I'll be here where i've always been

I'm gonna be your friend

Until the day i die



Mary, shouln't let 'em make you mad

You hold the best you can

And Mary, after all the pain is gone

I'm always gonna live to be your man
