An Idea About Mary

A sailor a sailor did drown my heart

Because of your thunderous wave goodbye

And I never saw you sleeping

In your matching shoes

So a part of me still thinks you're alive

And if my mam is feeling better

We'll take some sandwiches for the road

And we'll drive into the lights on the way home

And my dad talks about the weather

Says 'the arse is falling out of the sky'

The day that Mary died

Oh lover!

I've got plenty so why do i feel

Like I've got nothing oh lover!

I'm so empty - who am I now?

Tell me who i'm going to be

Or just give me back me

My savior is braver than I can be

Taking all the weapons out of my mind

And I sing for my supper but I sing for me

So a part of me is aching to survive

And if my mam is feeling better

We'll take some sandwiches for the road

And we'll drive into the lights on the way home

And my dad talks about the weather

Says 'the arse is falling out of the sky'

The day that Mary died

Oh lover!I've got plenty

so why do I feel

Like I've got nothing oh lover!

I'm so empty - so who am I now?

Oh lover!

I've got plenty so why do I feel like

I need something else

that gives me something else

or give me back me

Someone put a shape on me

Someone put a shape on me

Someone put a shape on me

Oh lover!

I've got plenty so why do I feel

Like I've got nothing oh lover!

I'm so empty - so who am I now?

Who am i - Oh lover

I've got plenty so why do I feel like

i need something else

So give me something else

If i need something else

then give me back me
