Oingo Boingo - Mary Lyrics
Oh mary wasnt happy with the life that she ledShe was a simple girl without much to saySo one day she just upped and left her dreary homeAnd she left all her friends behind to wander all aloneAnd at first she was afraid, she was so far awayFrom her home but slowly she got to like it anywayOh mary wont you please come...Well in time she found thatThe mountain that she had been taughtHer whole life, that she must avoidAnd though at first it hurt, and no one could comfort herShe finally came to appreciate itAnd she like it, she like it - oh wasnt she surprisedAnd though still alone, she grew so much insideOh mary wont you please come...And after a time, she became so sublimeShe could look in peoples eyes and read their mindsThough her hands would sometimes bleed and occasionallyShe would long for her past and the memories they bringShe decided to return to her old home townAnd her heart was burning with all the things she foundOh mary wont you please come...So, mary came back and at first no one recognized her faceAnd her friends were all a little bit afraidWhen they heard what she had to sayThey all slowly backed awayAnd her family took her aside and put their arms around herThey said mary wont you please come back to us nowThere is still time to repent for all your sinsAnd mary started to cry when she realizedThat shed never come home again in her lifeOh mary wont you please comeMary wont you please come home...
