Verse 1:]

Maybe my mind is playing tricks on me but I could've sworn

That the kiss that was meant truly for me is leaving me torn

How could love be so kind and so gentle and turn and be so cold

Why must my arms feel so empty for what my heart still holds



[Hook:]

Mary how could you go

Around and hurt me so

I've tried so hard to please you baby

But I just can't seem to baby

Mary how could you go

Around and hurt me so

I've tried so hard to please you baby

But I just can't seem to baby



[Verse 2:]

Was there something I could've done to change this outcome here

As if I blinked my eyes and suddenly she up and disappeared

How can love escape your grasp without you ever letting go

And until she returns to my arms I may never know



[Hook:]
