Mary Jones

Mary knew, she didn't ask why
She tries to find a place to hide

Mary was born with a secret smile
She kept her fingers on the steering wheel

People and places painted black
Mary Jones ain't coming back

She tied her shoes the final time
She kissed my cheek, so I tied mine

Mary knew it couldn't happen here. Not for her
People and places, moments missed
Here I sit in all of this

When she was young, the sky went on forever
Just like the sky before her
Just like the road beside her
It's easy

One more light goes out tonight
All its heavy headlights bright
Mary says we'll be alright

People and places painted black
Mary Jones ain't coming back
