Mary Louise
Oh, can't you hear yourself?
You're not making any sense
Nothing but weeds are growing in your hair
You miss your flower bed
The colors are changing with every passing night
Although it's only painting ours
You hoped it would happen
Still freedom's the big surprise
Even more than you realize
But yesterday's my town
And I'll still be around
Mary Louise
I'd love to hear from you
To know that you're okay
Oh, why didn't you sleep?
It's hard to
I guessed you couldn't fall
The spur of a danger with every passing day
That you will ever
I felt it would happen
Still freedom's the big surprise
And I've come to realize
That yesterday's my town
And I'll still be around
Ooh, heavy heart
And dead end streets
They're coming down
And I'm afraid
Afraid
That I'll never see your face
Your body wasted
