Mary, you're covered in roses
You're covered in ashes
Covered in rain
You're covered in babies
You're covered in slashes
You're covered in wilderness
You're covered in stains
You cast aside the sheet
You cast aside the shroud
Of another man
Who served the world proud
You grieve another son
You lose another one
On some sunny day
And always you stayed, Mary
Jesus said, mother I couldn't stay another day longer
And He flies right by
Leaves a kiss upon her face

Every where the sand shifts
Even when the night leaves
She's always there
And Jesus says, mother I couldn't stay another day longer
And He flies right by
And leaves a kiss upon her face
And the angels sing His praises
In a blaze of glory
Mary stays behind
And starts cleanin' up the place
Oh Mary, you're covered in roses
You're covered in ruin
You're covered in secrets
You're covered in treetops
You're covered in birds
Who can sing a million songs
Without any words
You cast aside the sheet

You cast aside the shroud
Oh another man
Who served the world proud
You grieve another son
Yeah you lose another one
On some sunny day
And always you stay,
Mary
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mary
Hmm, I love Mary
Always, always, aiways
You stay
