How long has it been Since I held you near? How long will it be Till I have you right here? You say that it hurts I can't disagree But how can I hold on To someone who's leaving me? And Mary says she's gonna be okay She tells me things are getting busier these days And Mary says she's gonna be alrignt You know how much I miss her in my life Goodbye yesterday I see my dreams walking away And Mary looks just like she did before Except she don't love me She don't love me anymore Oh oh I could shake your hand Or I could kiss you goodbye But I just might break down Looking in your brown eyes So what happens next Do I listen to my mind or heart? I don't know where to start Feeling alright again And Mary says she's gonna be okay She tells me things are getting busier these days And Mary says she's gonna be alrignt You know how much I need her in my life Goodbye yesterday I see my dreams walking away And Mary looks just like she did before Except she don't love me, oh And Mary says she's gonna be okay She tells me things will be much easier someday And Mary says she's gonna be alright You know how much I'm missing her deep inside And Mary says she's gonna be okay, yeah yeah yeah Oh oh She's gonna be alright She's gonna be alright Oh oh, oh
