Sweet Mary

When I am all on my own
One foot is in the grave
My sweet mary comes
To help me to find my way
So I give her my thanks
I don't know what I would do
Without out my sweet mary love
To help me to make it through
Ghost come out at nighttime
I hear the rumble of thunder
Flashes of light to follow her
Wherever she goes so pretty
But I will never ever touch her
Cause if I did she might die
I just smile and look on
As she leads me to the wondrous sights
When I am all on my own
One foot is in the grave
My sweet mary comes
To help me to find my way
So I give her my thanks
I don't know what I would do
Without out my sweet mary love
To help me to make it through
What did I do to deserve this
Give my life to a tiger
Give my last food and water
To a strange wayfarer
I'm so blessed in this life
I wanna show my gratitude
She is so beautiful when she flies
I wanna see her fly high away
Who is she?
I wanna know
Who is she?
(My heart is stolen)
I wanna know
(My heart is stolen)
When I am all on my own
One foot is in the grave
My sweet mary comes
To help me to find my way
So I give her my thanks
I don't know what I would do
Without out my sweet mary love
To help me to make it through
