"Mary's Prayer" lyrics

"Mary's Prayer"
(originally by Danny Wilson)

Everything is wonderful, being here is heavenly
Every single day she says, everything is free
I used to be so careless, as if I couldn't care less
Did I have to make this mess, when I was Mary's prayer?

Suddenly the heavens roared, suddenly the rain came down
Suddenly was washed away, the Mary that I knew
So when you find somebody to keep, think of me and celebrate
I made such a big mistake, when I was Mary's prayer

So if I say save me, save me, be the light in my eyes
And if I say ten Hail Mary's, leave the light on in heaven for me

Blessed is the one who shares, your power and your beauty Mary
Blessed is the millionaire, who shares your wedding day
So when you find somebody to keep, think of me and celebrate
I made such a big mistake, when I was Mary's prayer

So if I say save me, save me, be the light in my eyes
And if I say ten Hail Mary's, leave the light on in heaven
Save me, save me, be the light in my eyes
And if I say ten Hail Mary's, leave the light on in heaven for me

If you want the fruit to fall, you have to give the tree a shake
If you shake the tree too hard, the bough is gonna break
And if I can't reach the top of the tree, Mary you can blow me up there
What I wouldn't give to be, when I was Mary's prayer

So if I say save me, save me, be the light in my eyes
And if I say ten Hail Mary's, leave the light on in heaven
Save me, save me, be the light in my eyes
And if I say ten Hail Mary's, leave the light on in heaven

Save me, save me, be the light in my eyes
What I wouldn't give to be, when I was Mary's prayer
What I wouldn't give to be, when I was Mary's prayer
What I wouldn't give to be, when I was Mary's prayer
