Mary Lyrics - Day After Tomorrow - Joan Baez

Mary you're covered in roses, you're covered in ashes 

You're covered in rain 

You're covered in babies, you're covered in slashes 

You're covered in wilderness, you're covered in stains 

You cast aside the sheet, you cast aside the shroud 

Of another man, who served the world proud 

You greet another son, you lose another one 

On some sunny day and always stay, Mary 

Jesus says Mother I couldn't stay another day longer 

Flys right by me and leaves a kiss upon her face 

While the angels are singin' his praises in a blaze of glory 

Mary stays behind and starts cleaning up the place

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Mary she moves behind me 

She leaves her fingerprints everywhere 

Everytime the snow drifts, everytime the sand shifts 

Even when the night lifts, she's always there 

Jesus said Mother I couldn't stay another day longer 

Flys right by me and leaves a kiss upon her face 

While the angels are singin' his praises in a blaze of glory 

Mary stays behind and starts cleaning up the place

Mary you're covered in roses, you're covered in ruin 

you're covered in secrets 

Your'e covered in treetops, you're covered in birds 

who can sing a million songs without any words 

You cast aside the sheets, you cast aside the shroud 

of another man, who served the world proud 

You greet another son, you lose another one 

on some sunny day and always stay 

Mary, Mary, Mary
