Mary

I wish today was my birthday I wish it was my birthday today, oh Mary I'd wish that you were home I'd wish that you were home Why you gotta be so far away? Oh Mary, so far away M-M-M-Mary, so far away I'd send the kids to your mama's today, oh Mary I told her it was my birthday today I called you on the phone But you can't talk, I shoulda known So why'd you choose my birthday to go away? Oh Mary, so far away M-M-M-Mary, so far away You sent a photograph from foreign lands Of you draped across a baby grand Oh this image sparks a jealousy I couldn't stand were you not next to me I'm tearing down the front door I'm freezing time, I'm bridging the shores No I don't want it be my birthday anymore! So what if you miss me? Don't it mean that you love me? Don't it mean I'm your baby? Don't it mean it's my birthday, Oh Mary? Happy birthday, Mary
