[00:20.00]
[00:22.51] Mary walks
[00:25.60] down to the water's edge
[00:30.65] and there she hangs her head
[00:33.86] to find herself faded
[00:36.80] a shadow of what she once was
[00:44.51] She said "How long have I been sleeping
[00:47.95] and why do I feel so old
[00:53.14] why do I feel so cold
[00:56.80] my heart is saying one thing
[00:59.40] but my body won't let go
[01:07.14] With trembling hands she reaches up
[01:12.81] a stranger's flesh is offered
[01:18.53] and I would be the last to know
[01:24.10] I would be the last the let it show
[01:29.70] I would be the last to go
[01:35.39]
[01:41.76] Take her hand
[01:44.56] she will lead you through the fire
[01:52.39] give you back hope
[01:55.10] and hope that you won't take too much
[02:01.35] respecting what is left
[02:04.42] she cradled us
[02:06.52] she held us in her arms
[02:14.93] unselfish in her suffering
[02:19.20] she could not understand
[02:26.31] that no one seemed to have the time
[02:31.92] to cherish what was given
[02:37.52] and I would be the last to know
[02:43.14] and I would be the last to let it show
[02:48.99] I would be the last to go...
[03:01.42] Mary walks.
[03:08.60]
[03:11.91] and I would be the last to know
[03:17.33] and I would be the last to let it show
[03:22.52] I would be the last to go...
[03:35.84]
