The Eyes Of Mary Lyrics - Cracker

Lyrics transcribed by john finch 

You were born 

With it inside 

A secret twin in your wounded side 

Bits of hair 

Teeth and string 

And yellow flowers 

Open up 

Let it all in 

Let the strange parade begin 

A piece of pie 

A piece of cake 

For every sister 

Let the eyes of mary 

Carry you away now 

Let the eyes of mary 

Carry you away now 

A baby born 

It's made of leaves 

And carried round the maypole tree 

By irish girls 

With jet black hair 

And dark brown freckles 

Let me bring 

You bits of string 

Tired and worn and sagging things 

Under the weight 

Of old crows feet 

And the seasons 

Let the eyes of mary 

Carry you away now 

Let the eyes of mary 

Carry you away now 

Let the brides of jesus 

Carry you away now 

Let the brides of jesus 

Carry you away now. 

Away now 

Away
