Lyrics

[00:15.10] After all the jacks are in their boxes
[00:20.65] And the clowns have all gone to bed
[00:26.53] You can hear happiness staggering on down the street
[00:32.60] Footsteps dressed in red
[00:38.68] And the wind whispers mary
[00:48.72] A broom is drearily sweeping
[00:53.78] Up the broken pieces of yesterdays life
[01:00.09] Somewhere a queen is weeping
[01:05.71] Somewhere a king has no wife
[01:11.89] And the wind, it cries mary
[01:54.17] The traffic lights, they turn, uh, blue tomorrow
[01:59.21] And shine their emptiness down on my bed
[02:05.17] The tiny island sags down stream
[02:11.03] cause the life that lived is,
[02:14.03] Is dead
[02:17.15] And the wind screams mary
[02:26.21] Uh-will the wind ever remember
[02:32.60] The names it has blow in the past?
[02:38.41] And with this crutch, its old age, and its wisdom
[02:43.90] It whispers no, this will be the last
[02:50.57] And the wind cries mary
