Mary, Mary
Mary was a little girl with navy blue eyes Shattered too quickly with secrets and lies Living in a small town where she felt claustrophobic They dressed her in scarlet when she went out in public Mary, Mary don’t you know You’re the kind of heart and soul He’s always loved, He always will Just keep on coming back to Him Mary grew up and outgrew the town Left it in hopes of love never found Two times a mistress, she felt like a harlot Bittered with shame, she hated that scarlet But Mary, Mary, don’t you know humanity lives your story We’re all the same, the cowards the whores Forgiven much, we love all the more We love all the more, we love all the more Mary met the young Man with the Letras de cancionesancient soul Who spoke with His eyes and stopped the stone’s throw He silenced the voices that played in her head Offered a new name and a husband instead Then navy blue eyes Like a stormy night ocean Flooded with tears as the dam broke wide open Like she’d be holding her breath since the day she’d been born She inhaled for the first time As secrets came bleeding down a face that was ashen She felt His embrace and the strength to believe Him As the name of that young Man crossed her cracked lips He whispered forgiveness And she loved all the more She loved all the more She loved all the more (Thanks to Temidayo for these lyrics) From Letras Mania
