Let the world be still tonight
Let the fire be the only light
Draw the curtain, pull down the shade
In easy arms, we'll laySo come on lady, now close your eyes
Let the madness pass on by
Loosen up your golden hair
Stroke away my every careThere's no comfort in strangers
That I can't find right hereLayin' down in the arms of Sister Mary
Will her lovin' ever last?
Layin' down in the arms of Mother Mary
Let the world drift pastFor a moment, a perfect love
Pure and silent, like a star above
Never mind 'bout tomorrow's fears
Peace of mind is hereOutside's a world of strangeness
So I will stay right hereLayin' down in the arms of Sister Mary
Will her lovin' ever last?
Layin' down in the arms of Mother Mary
Nothin' more to askLet her lovin' come to you
Let her lovin' come to you
Oh, her love will come to you
And bring you home, yeahAlright, alrightOutside's a world of strangers
So I will stay right hereLayin' down in the arms of Sister Mary
Will her lovin' ever last?
Layin' down in the arms of Mother Mary
Nothin' more to askLayin' down in the arms of Sister Mary
Will her lovin' ever last?
Layin' down in the arms of Mother Mary
Let the world drift past
Let the world drift past
