Lyrics for If My Mary Were Here by Harry Chapin:
| | | Artist: | Harry Chapin |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | If My Mary Were Here | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 90 | | | | Lyrics: | I would not be so stoned
If my Mary were here
I don't think I'd have phoned you
If my
Mary were here
I'm a sad sack Sir Galahad
Who's sword's around his knees
With a Grail no
longer holy
And a prayer that's saying - please
I would not be alone
If my Mary were
here
But she took off
And Lord I'm lost.
I don't think I'd be drinking
If
my Mary were here
And I know what I'd be thinking
If my Mary were here
We'd be wrapping
up a blanket
Full of cheddar cheese and wine
Packing up our camper with a rendezvous in
mind
And we'd picnic out in Lincoln Park
If Mary were here
But she split
So I got
lit
I'm sorry that I called you
In the middle of the night
But you're the one
who listens
When I need a little light
I know we haven't talked
Since I dropped you in
the dirt
I know you're not my lady now
But Baby, how I hurt.
(I could whistle
up an old tune
That your memory might recall
Rustle up some reminisce
'Bout the good old
days and all
If I were seeking someone else
I could find a way to hide
But I'm pleading
like a pauper, Babe
And it leaves no place for pride)
I would toss away my
troubles
When my Mary was here
But now I'm lost inside the ruble
Cause my Mary's not
here
So could I come on over
With my heart in my hands
And place it on your
pillow
Like a rusty old tin can
I'm drunk and seeing double
And my Mary's not
here
Once again
Be the friend
That you've been
And take me in.
Please
take me in. | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
