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 You're covered in stains You cast aside the sheets You cast aside the shroud Of another man Who served the world proud And you greet another son And you lose another one On some sunny day And always you stay Mary Jesus said, mother, I couldn't stay another day longer He flies right by and leaves a kiss upon her face While the angels were singing 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 flies right by and leaves a kiss upon her face While the angels were singing 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 And you greet another son And you lose another one On some sunny day And always you stay Always you stay Mary Mary Mary Mary Mary Mary Thank you so much Take care [?] Thank you so much for having me Thanks
