Lyrics
Virgin Mary Highway
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I lay on my back in the lake at night in the summer time trying to remember
Every last second, every last breath that I spent with you
The yellow dotted line, reflected in your eyes
You scream as the crickets fly in the open window
Please don't cry love
Come on babe, we both know that I'll stay
The Virgin Mary lives beside the highway
Let's go and see her today
We've both felt love before even if we deny it
That familiar feeling of believing that we'll die without it
Be we never do, well not completely
Come on babe, we both know that I'll stay
The Virgin Mary lives beside the highway
Let's go and see her lets ask her blessing today
Bless us
Bless us
