How long has it been
Since I held you near
How long will it be
Till I have you right here
You say that it hurts
I can't disagree
But how can I hold on
To someone
who's leaving me
And Mary says
she's gonna be OK
She tells me things are
getting busier these days
And Mary says
she's gonna be alright
You know how much
I miss her in my life
Goodbye yesterday
I see my dreams
walking away
And Mary looks
just like she did before
Except she don't love me
She don't love me anymore
I could shake your hand
Or I could kiss you goodbye
But I just might break down
Looking in your brown eyes
So what happens next
Do I listen to
my mind or heart
I don't know where to start
Feeling alright again
And Mary says
she's gonna be OK
She tells me things
are getting
busier these days
And Mary says
she's gonna be alright
You know how much
I miss her in my life
Goodbye yesterday
I see my dreams
walking away
And Mary looks
just like she did before
Except she don't love me
And Mary says
she's gonna be OK
She tells me things
will be much easier someday
And Mary says
she's gonna be alright
You know how much
I'm missing her deep inside
And Mary says
she's gonna be OK
she's gonna be alright
she's gonna be alright
