Mary In The Morning

[Verse 1]
Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning
When through the sleepy haze I see her lying there
Soft as the rain that falls on summer flowers
Warm as the sunlight shining on her head

[Verse 2]
When I awake and see her there so close beside me
I want to take her in my arms
The ache is there so deep inside me

[Verse 3]
Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning
Chasing the rainbow in her dreams so far away
And when she turns to touch me I kiss her face so softly
And then my Mary wakes to love and love again

[Verse 4]
And Mary's there in summer days or stormy weather
She doesn't care how right or wrong the love we share
We share together

[Verse 5]
Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the evening
Kissed by the shade of night and starlight in her hair
And as we walk, I hold her close beside me
All our tomorrows for a lifetime we will share
