Lyrics
Johnny And Mary
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.
Johnny's always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Knows he tires easily
Johnny thinks the world would be right
If it could find truth for him
Mary says he changes his mind
More than a woman
But she made her bet
Even though the chance was slim
Johnny says he's willing to learn it
When he decides he's a fool
Johnny says he'll live anywhere
When he has time to
Mary combs her hair
Says she should be used to it
Mary always hedges her bets
She never knows what to think
She says that he still acts like he's
Being discovered
Scared that he'll get caught
Without a second thought
Johnny thinks he's wasting his prayers
Trying to make sense to her
Mary says he's lacking a real
Sense of proportion
So she combs her hair
Knows he tires easily
Johnny's always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Says he should be used to it
'Cause Mary's always running around
Running around, running around
