Mary Lyrics by Rorey Carroll

Love Is An Outlaw

0

[Verse 1]
I waited here
Stayed here in vain
You never came
I called out for you
But evil is the eye of the moon
Staring behind the shoulder of you
Time is a merry-go-round
Climbing from the wall to the ground
[Chorus]
Mary, won't you open up the door
I forgot what you put me out here for
Tell me what you need for me to say
So you wouldn't have to treat me this ol' way
[Verse 2]
Home, home again
Thrown into the unwelcome wind
Mary, she won't let me in
And love is not a game
Beyond our control is the flame
Even in the fall of the rain
Tossed like a wet log to fire
Screaming out your name to the pyre
[Chorus]
Mary, won't you open up the door
I forgot what you put me out here for
Tell me what you need for me to say
So you wouldn't have to treat me this ol' way
[Verse 3]
Hang down your head
To the open road again
Back to your oldest friend
It's just the end
There's gravel in your pockets again
Mary, she won't let you in
You wait for the sun to get high
And crack through the walls of the sky
[Chorus]
Singin', Mary, won't you open up the door
I forgot what you put me out here for
Tell me what you need for me to say
So you wouldn't have to treat me this ol' way
Mary, won't you open up the door
I forgot what you put me out here for
Tell me what you need for me to say
So you wouldn't have to treat me this ol' way
