Mary's Song

[00:09.74] She said, I was seven and you were nine

[00:15.60] I looked at you like the stars that shine

[00:20.12] In the sky, the pretty lights

[00:24.66] And our daddies used to joke about the two of us

[00:28.37] Growing up and falling in love and our mamas smiled

[00:34.20] And rolled their eyes and said oh my my my

[00:43.25] Take me back to the house in the backyard tree

[00:46.70] Said you'd beat me up, you were bigger than me

[00:50.97] You never did, you never did

[00:56.52] Take me back when our world was one block wide

[00:59.46] I dared you to kiss me and ran when you tried

[01:03.19] Just two kids, you and I

[01:08.50] Oh my my my my

[01:16.47] Well, I was sixteen when suddenly

[01:24.96] I wasn't that little girl you used to see

[01:28.68] But your eyes still shined like pretty lights

[01:33.99] And our daddies used to joke about the two of us

[01:37.73] They never believed we'd really fall in love

[01:41.18] And our mamas smiled and rolled their eyes

[01:47.30] And said oh my my my

[01:54.20] Take me back to the creek beds we turned up

[01:57.39] Two A.M. riding in your truck and all I need is you next to me

[02:05.65] Take me back to the time we had our very first fight

[02:09.63] The slamming of doors instead of kissing goodnight

[02:13.14] You stayed outside till the morning light

[02:18.96] Oh my my my my

[02:31.46] A few years had gone and come around

[02:38.38] We were sitting at our favorite spot in town

[02:38.91] And you looked at me, got down on one knee

[02:44.23] Take me back to the time when we walked down the aisle

[02:48.20] Our whole town came and our mamas cried

[02:51.12] You said I do and I did too

[02:54.05] Take me home where we met so many years before

[03:00.16] We'll rock our babies on that very front porch

[03:03.88] After all this time, you and I

[03:09.98] I'll be eighty-seven; you'll be eighty-nine

[03:13.17] I'll still look at you like the stars that shine

[03:17.17] In the sky, oh my my my
