Mary

Intro: verse 1 Oh Mary wasn't happy with the life that she led She was a simple girl without much to say So one day she up and left her dreary home And she left all her friends to wander all alone Interlude 1 And at first she was afraid, she was so far away From her home but slowly she got to like it anyway Oh, Mary won't you please come Mary won't you please come Mary won't you please come Solo verse 2 Well in time she found that the mountain that she had been taught Her whole life, that she must avoid And though at first it hurt, and no one could comfort her She finally came to appreciate it Interlude 2 And she liked it, she liked it - oh wasn't she surprised And though still alone, she grew so much inside Oh, Mary won't you please come Mary won't you please come Mary won't you please come Solo verse 3 And after a time, she became so sublime She could look in peoples eyes and read their minds Though her hands would sometimes bleed and occasionally She would long for her past and the memories they bring Interlude 3 She decided to return to her old home town And her heart was burning with all the things she found Oh, Mary won't you please come Mary won't you please come Mary won't you please come Please come home Solo Bridge So, Mary came back and at first no one recognized her face And her friends were all a little bit afraid When they heard what she had to say, they all slowly backed away And her family took her aside and put their arms around her They said Mary won't you please come back to us now There is still time to repent for all your sins And Mary started to cry when she realized That she'd never come home again in her life Oh, Mary won't you please come Mary won't you please come Mary won't you please come Please come home Outro Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home
