Its been a year since I last saw Mary
When she said goodbye
She casts a spell on my intention
That's the reason why
I'm taking my thought from a bottle lately
And breaking them up in my mind
All my problems they don't look pretty
Oh but its no surprise
Well its so hard
To take what you're given
Well its so hard
To give what you've got
After the love goes
Here I go
There's no easy way
Bright lights of Memphis
Sounds like a real good time
But I lost my heart and my money
Honed like cherry wine
But I don't remember the church bells ring
Through the day or the night
But I kept my soul on my own
Not without a fight
Well its so hard
To take what you're given
Well its so hard
To give what you've got
After the love goes
Here I go
There's no easy way
Its been a while since I last saw Mary
Wipe a tearful eye
Well I remember I first saw Mary
Saying her last goodbye
Breaking it up from a bottle lately
And making it up in my mind
But all my problems, they don't look pretty
Oh that's the bottom line
Its so hard
To take what you're given
Well its so hard
To give what you've got
After the love goes
Here I go
There's no easy road
