Mary had a little clock that works in its own way, |
| [00:23.02] |
just another afternoon in May |
| [00:27.28] |
Children playing birds were singing postmen said hello, |
| [00:32.16] |
What if Mary wasn't late that day |
| [00:35.40] |
|
| [00:36.67] |
Johnny was a lonely man who has not much to say |
| [00:41.05] |
He's now on the roof to say goodbye |
| [00:45.42] |
He was so in love with Mary when she was engaged, |
| [00:49.70] |
Sadly he was not her fiance |
| [00:54.46] |
|
| [01:09.73] |
So God I ask why today, |
| [01:13.78] |
are they not dear enough to you? |
| [01:16.48] |
Did they not pray? |
| [01:18.64] |
Is that how you work your way? |
| [01:23.65] |
Now I'm so afraid |
| [01:27.75] |
|
| [01:28.62] |
To some it was one fine day, |
| [01:31.85] |
to them the very end of life well that's their fate |
| [01:38.07] |
So that's how people come and go |
| [01:42.11] |
What's gonna happen no one knows |
| [01:46.77] |
|
| [01:48.30] |
Johnny took a breath and quietly he jumped off the roof |
| [01:53.28] |
What if Mary wasn't late that day |
| [01:57.65] |
|
| [02:24.81] |
So God I ask why today, |
| [02:28.44] |
are they not dear enough to you? |
| [02:30.75] |
Did they not pray? |
| [02:32.77] |
Is that how you work your own way? |
| [02:37.91] |
Now I'm so afraid |
| [02:41.46] |
|
| [02:42.94] |
To some it was one fine day, |
| [02:46.14] |
to them the very end of life well that's their fate |
| [02:52.41] |
So that's how people come and go |
| [02:56.57] |
What's gonna happen no one knows |
| [03:00.47] |
|
| [03:00.97] |
So God I ask why today, |
| [03:04.03] |
well she had everything she dreamt of yesterday |
| [03:08.39] |
But now the happiness subside |
| [03:13.59] |
Will she rest in peace in her own grave? |
| [03:18.51] |
Bout' him I dare not say, |
| [03:21.63] |
he landed on her head and broke her neck they say. |
| [03:28.15] |
So that's how tragic life can be |
| [03:32.29] |
Too bad that many still don't see |
| [03:37.89] |
|
| [03:39.72] |
Mary had a little clock that works in its own way |
| [03:44.96] |
Yet she never has another day |
| [03:52.66] |
