Mary Lyrics by Kassi Valazza

Dear Dead Days

2019

[Verse 1]
Tommy was a wealthy man
But Mary thought that she could stand
To wear his ring upon her hand someday
But Tommy fell for Eloise
And Mary fell upon her knees
Mary never looked at love the same

[Chorus]
Oh, how the time moves slower than twine
In my fingers, one, two, three
Mary didn't know that the farther you go
It's not quite as it seems

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Old John Carver aimed to please
His daughter was young Eloise
A dowry of fine cattle did he bring
But famine came and starved the beasts
And as for Tom and Eloise
They gambled their life savings away

[Chorus]
Oh, how the time moves slower than twine
In my fingers, one, two, three
Mary didn't know that the farther you go
It's not quite as it seems

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Old John Carver moved away
His cattle gone and turned astray
Mary bought that plot of land one day
With tired hands, she built a home
And Tommy's debt began to grow
Until his life was all he had to pay

[Chorus]
Oh, how the time moves slower than twine
In my fingers, one, two, three
Mary didn't know that the farther you go
It's not quite as it seems

[Instrumental Outro]
