Mary came back in the middle of December
|
With a scar that she never could remember
|
She was always so high in school
|
And no one ever knew the difference
|
Then we'd cut class and we'd dream about the ocean
|
Was it you or a chemical emotion?
|
Everything was crystal clear
|
And you could sing the words to that song
|
I could never find
|
|
Hurry up now, it's the middle of the story
|
Where the king goes out in the blaze of glory
|
And everything is a mystery and we will never die
|
You're a four letter word that I used to know
|
A four letter word that I used to know
|
You're a four letter word that I used to know
|
Like hope and pain and Mary
|
|
Lyin' in the sand while the moon was rising
|
Full of thoughts and the feelings I was hiding
|
All the words that I tried to say and never did reveal
|
The summer flew by and I headed out to school
|
Met a girl, I lost touch with you
|
Now everything is crystal clear
|
But still I find that somehow
|
You keep running through my mind
|
|
Hurry up now, it's the middle of the story
|
Where the king goes out in the blaze of glory
|
And everything is a mystery and we will never die
|
You're a four letter word that I used to know
|
A four letter word that I used to know
|
You're a four letter word that I used to know
|
Like hope and pain and Mary
|
|
Hope comes in circles
|
Pain fades away
|
Lying on the beach with the world out of reach
|
Me and Mary
|
|
Hurry up now, it's the middle of the story
|
Where the king goes out in the blaze of glory
|
And everything is a mystery and we will never die
|
|
And all the shit in life seems to happen for a reason
|
Was it me or the end of the season
|
Did you fall off your saddle while you were coming down
|
|
You're a four letter word that I used to know
|
A four letter word that I used to know
|
You're a four letter word that I used to know
|
Like hope and pain and Mary
|
