Lyrics

[00:23.36] You're covered in ashes
[00:29.36] You're covered in rain
[00:31.92]
[00:32.86] You're covered in babies
[00:35.30]
[00:36.55] You're covered in slashes
[00:43.92] You're covered in wilderness
[00:47.86] You're covered in stains
[00:50.80]
[00:51.42] You cast aside the sheet
[00:54.92] You cast aside the shroud
[00:58.42] Of another man
[01:02.50] Who served the world proud
[01:06.25] You greet another son
[01:08.88]
[01:09.94] You lose another one
[01:12.58]
[01:26.22] Jesus says Mother I couldn't stay another day longer
[01:31.66]
[01:33.16] Jesus says Mother I couldn't stay another day longer
[01:35.91] Flys right by me and leaves a kiss upon her face
[01:39.66]
[01:40.22] While the angels are singin' his praises in a blaze of glory
[01:46.28]
[01:47.72] Mary she moves behind me
[01:54.78] Mary she moves behind me
[02:01.72] She leaves her fingerprints everywhere
[02:09.03] Everytime the snow drifts
[02:12.41] Everytime the sand shifts
[02:16.16] Even when the night lifts
[02:19.91]
[02:25.17] Jesus said Mother I couldn't stay another day longer
[02:30.74]
[02:32.24] Jesus said Mother I couldn't stay another day longer
[02:34.80] Flys right by me and leaves a kiss upon her face
[02:39.49] While the angels are singin' his praises in a blaze of glory
[02:45.55]
[02:46.80] Mary you're covered in roses
[02:55.36] Mary you're covered in roses
[03:00.18]
[03:00.86] you're covered in ruin
[03:04.36] You're covered in secrets
[03:07.68]
[03:08.24] Your'e covered in treetops
[03:11.49]
[03:12.11] You're covered in birds
[03:15.36] Who can sing a million songs without any words
[03:22.99] You cast aside the sheets
[03:26.49] You cast aside the shroud
[03:30.24] Of another man
[03:33.74] Who served the world proud
[03:37.86] You greet another son
[03:41.36] You lose another one
[03:44.99] On some sunny day and always stay
[03:56.68]
[04:01.55] Mary
[04:07.30]
[04:08.99] Mary
