Lyrics
SWEET MARY:
Well it has been, and always will have
We’ve lost a bit, but we ain’t been had
Yes I recall then the good times did
Tip the scales against the bad
Sometimes parting sorrow is sweet but it’s always sad
Please lock the door
I can’t help myself anymore
I’ve got to ride, if I don’t I believe you’ll find Lady Hades and I
Unfaithfully wound up in arms on the floor
Sweet Mary that just ain’t the kind of peace of mind I’m searching for
If my word sounds uncertain, I guess that I still am
It feels so strange to have to hurt you to be my own man
But I gave you all that I could give
And I stood all that I could stand
So here I go, swallowing my heart, binding my shaking hands
