I love the tone that's in your laugh 
Gasping for an extra breath 
Waiting for the time to pass 
I believe in days ahead 
Don't spend another night alone 
Crossin' where she knew we're dead 

Mary, you shouldn't let 'em make you mad
You hold the best you can
And Mary, after all the pain is gone
I'm always gonna live to be your man

I've had it easy now you see
When I'm down you're always there
Standing by [bad word] me 
Someday we'll go round the world
I'll make the journey so sublime
I know you're not a travellin' girl

Mary, you shouldn't let 'em make you mad
You hold the best you can
And Mary, after all the pain is gone
I'm always gonna live to be your man

Cause I'd give everything I have
Forget all the things that bring me joy
If you could have one day
Pure and simple happiness
Until that [bad word] I'll be here where I've always been 
I'm gonna be your friend 
Until the day I die

Mary, you shouldn't let 'em make you mad
You hold the best you can
And Mary, after all the pain is gone
I'm always gonna live to be your man
