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 them 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, 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
