Mary

Dumber than a magazine
The water's only ankle-deep
But I'm afraid when you call my name, yeah
Don't you dream of other men
With greater social confidence
The fire escapes through the window frame, there

Mary, I had to lose the war for us
I was here before it was
A place where lovers meet
Mary I witness love as time you know
Never as a place you go
Somewhere we could leave

Anybody else would be
A better kind of company
Everyone needs someone to love them
The one with eyes of green
The great Olympic swimming queen
Who lies beside other peoples' husbands

Mary, I had to lose the war for us
I was here before it was
A place where lovers meet
Mary, I witness love as time you know
Never as a place you go
Somewhere we could leave

Mary, I had to lose the war for us
I was here before it was
A place where lovers meet
Mary, I witness love as time you know
Never as a place you go
Somewhere we could leave
