lyrics

Mary take me back to
Nights when we felt the air cool

And your mother called you in for your dinner
And you told me she had grown paler and thinner
Since last I saw her
So you took your feet from the bed of the quarry
And ran without shoes on and said you were sorry
To leave me there in the water

And I don’t see you round here no more
And I don’t hear her calling your name
Somebody told me they saw you last winter
Carrying all of the blame

Darling nothing could keep her
Regret and guilt like rock like silt sink deeper

We shouldn’t have been there without any grown ups
It’s not safe for two little girls so they told us
But we were chosen daughters
See our mothers loved us strong as the river
They held us and carried us and safely delivered us
Out to wider waters

And I don’t see you round here no more
And I don’t hear her calling your name
Somebody told me they saw you down South
You were carrying all of the blame

Mary

Your mother loved you strong as the river
She held you and carried you and safely delivered you
Out to wider waters
