Ive burned my eyes on the summertime skies traveling a country mile
I drowned my pain in the winter rain and the sweetness of a smile...
Ive been possessed or maybe Im blessed by dreams I cant define
But cant you see theres a light in me and Ive got to make it shine...
Chorus...
Oh, sweet Mary..., Mary, dont you know...
I may have come a long way but Ive got a long way to go...
I get through fire Ive been down to the wild just trying to find my name
Ive soared as high as the wild birds fly but I still came down the same
Now I may feel just a little more real but Im still more lost than found
But when nighttime comes I still need someone to wrap my love around...
Chorus...
Oh(oh), sweet Mary..., (sweet, sweet) Mary, dont( Mary dont ) you know... (you know)
I may have come a long way but Ive got a long way to go...
Oh, sweet Mary..., Mary, dont( Mary dont ) you know... (you know)
I may have come a long way but Ive got a long way to go...
