Mary

Mary you're covered in roses, you're covered in ashes
You're covered in rain
You're covered in babies, you're covered in slashes
You're covered in wilderness, you're covered in stains
You cast aside the sheet, you cast aside the shroud
Of another man, who served the world proud
You greet another son, you lose another one
On some sunny day and always stay, Mary

Jesus says Mother I couldn't stay another day longer
Flys right by me and leaves a kiss upon her face
While the angels are singin' his praises in a blaze of glory
Mary stays behind and starts cleaning up the place

Mary she moves behind me
She leaves her fingerprints everywhere
Everytime the snow drifts, everytime the sand shifts
Even when the night lifts, she's always there

Jesus said Mother I couldn't stay another day longer
Flys right by me and leaves a kiss upon her face
While the angels are singin' his praises in a blaze of glory
Mary stays behind and starts cleaning up the place

Mary you're covered in roses, you're covered in ruin
you're covered in secrets
Your'e covered in treetops, you're covered in birds
who can sing a million songs without any words
You cast aside the sheets, you cast aside the shroud
of another man, who served the world proud
You greet another son, you lose another one
on some sunny day and always stay
Mary, Mary, Mary


Mirror lyrics:

Mary, Mary, Mary
on some sunny day and always stay
You greet another son, you lose another one
of another man, who served the world proud
You cast aside the sheets, you cast aside the shroud
who can sing a million songs without any words
Your'e covered in treetops, you're covered in birds
you're covered in secrets
Mary you're covered in roses, you're covered in ruin

Mary stays behind and starts cleaning up the place
While the angels are singin' his praises in a blaze of glory
Flys right by me and leaves a kiss upon her face
Jesus said Mother I couldn't stay another day longer

Even when the night lifts, she's always there
Everytime the snow drifts, everytime the sand shifts
She leaves her fingerprints everywhere
Mary she moves behind me

Mary stays behind and starts cleaning up the place
While the angels are singin' his praises in a blaze of glory
Flys right by me and leaves a kiss upon her face
Jesus says Mother I couldn't stay another day longer

On some sunny day and always stay, Mary
You greet another son, you lose another one
Of another man, who served the world proud
You cast aside the sheet, you cast aside the shroud
You're covered in wilderness, you're covered in stains
You're covered in babies, you're covered in slashes
You're covered in rain
Mary you're covered in roses, you're covered in ashes
