mary

Mary, you're covered in roses, you're covered in ashes

You're covered in rain

You're covered in babies, covered in slashes

Covered in wilderness, 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 you stay, Mary

Jesus says, "Mother I couldn't stay another day longer"

He flys right by 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

Oh Mary, she moves behind me

She leaves her fingerprints everywhere

Every time the snow drifts, every way the sand shifts

Even when the night lifts, she's always there

Jesus said, "Mother I couldn't stay another day longer"

He flys right by 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

Oh Mary, you're covered in roses, you're covered in ruins

You're covered in secrets

You're covered in treetops, 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 you stay

Mary, Mary
