Mary’s Place

[Verse 1]

I got seven pictures of Buddha, the prophet's on my tongue

Eleven angels of mercy sighing over that black hole in the sun

My heart's dark but it's rising, I'm pulling all the faith I can see

From that black hole on the horizon, I hear your voice calling me

[Pre-Chorus]

Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain

Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain

[Chorus 1]

Meet me at Mary's place, we're going to have a party

Meet me at Mary's place, we're going to have a party

Tell me how do we get this thing started?

Meet me at Mary's place (meet me at Mary's place)

[Verse 2]

Familiar faces around me, laughter fills the air

Your loving grace surrounds me, everybody's here

Furniture's out on the front porch, music's up loud

I dream of you in my arms, I lose myself in the crowd

[Pre-Chorus]

Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain

Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain

[Chorus 2]

Meet me at Mary's place, we're going to have a party

Meet me at Mary's place, we're going to have a party

Tell me, how do you live broken-hearted?

Meet me at Mary's place (meet me at Mary's place)

[Saxophone solo]

[Bridge]

Meet me at Mary's place

Meet me at Mary's place

[Verse 3]

I got a picture of you in my locket, I keep it close to my heart

This light shining in my breast, leading me through the dark

Seven days, seven candles in my window, light your way

Your favorite record's on the turntable, I drop the needle and pray

[Verse 4]

Band's counting out midnight, floor's rumbling loud

Singer's calling up daylight, waiting for that shout from the crowd

Waiting for that shout from the crowd

Waiting for that shout from the crowd

Waiting for that shout from the crowd

Waiting for that shout from the crowd, waiting for that shout from the crowd

[Pre-Chorus]

Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, turn it up

Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up

[Chorus]

Meet me at Mary's place, we're going to have a party

Meet me at Mary's place, we're going to have a party

Tell me how do we get this thing started?

Meet me at Mary's place (meet me at Mary's place)

[Outro]

Meet me at Mary's place

Meet me at Mary's place

Meet me at Mary's place

Meet me at Mary's place

Oh, meet me at Mary's place

Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain

Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
