On A Sea Of Fleur De Lis Lyrics - Richard Shindell

I adore thee Mother Mary 

But would you change me back to a witch 

And let me live in the arms of a sorry old elm 

Give the gypsy moths a realm of their own 

For a postman's fee would I work for Thee 

From that tree would I swoop down and leave 

A billion blue eggs of eternity 

And in no time you'd have your own See 

Don't just stare 

I mean it, really 

Hear my prayer 

I give it freely 

Are you there Fleur-de-Lis? 

I adore thee Mother Mary 

But would you change me back to a witch 

And let me live in the arms of willow 

And fly around not wearing a stitch 

For so long has this room been so hollow 

We wait at the gate for an echo 

In the flesh of your newly cleaned frescoes 

Where Jesus holds John to his breast 

Wrapped around

Every Lyric From Shawn Mendes' Self-Titled New Album 

Every Lyric From Keith Urban's New Album 'Graffiti U' 

And rocking slowly 

No one bound 

To be so holy 

In your gown of fleur-de-lis 

I adore thee Mother Mary 

But would you change me back to a witch 

As a witch would I love you more than any man 

So give a wink, give a nod, but give a damn 

Be a sport, Mary, and don't tell Dad 

He need never know how He's been had 

And never you mind about those seven seals 

Daddy was a one shot deal 

One, two, three 

It could be that easy 

There we'd be 

I with my baby 

On a sea of fleur-de-lis 

Do-re-mi 

It could be that easy 

There we'd be 

I with my baby 

On a sea of fleur-de-lis
