Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning

When through a sleepy haze I see her lying there

Soft as the rain that falls on summer flowers

Warm as the sunlight shining on her golden hair, aah-umm



When I awake and see her there so close beside me

I want to take her in my arms, the ache is there so deep inside me



Nothin's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning

Chasing a rainbow in her dreams so far away

And when she turns to touch me I kiss her face so softly

Then my Mary wakes to love another day, aah-umm



And Mary's there in sunny days or stormy weather

She doesn't care `cause right or wrong the love we share, we share together



Nothin's quite as pretty as Mary in the evening

Kissed by the shades of night and starlight on her hair

And as we walk, I hold her close beside me

All our tomorrows for a lifetime we will share, aah-umm, aah-umm



FADE

aah-umm
