From the album: true north, released 11.14.2000 Interscope records/farmclub.com
I woke up and mary was still gone Thought if I stopped hurting she would come back To me Walk right through the door and say, ahhh huhhhh! I was only joking - didn't you look silly crying! But I wake up and mary is still gone
I looked at the clock and it was Still Lying on the floor exactly where I threw it Both hands smashed against it's silver face My feeble attempt to stop Time but time goes on And I wake up and mary is still gone
Chorus: Mary was it necessary To leave before the party I know it's selfish to say You always brought the cake now What will I eat with all these tears?
I looked at the list and saw her name Kick myself, she never got an invitation Kid myself, I'm sure somehow she knew My stupid attempt to find Some way to move on But I wake up and mary is still gone Mary is still gone
