Mary - Sarah McLachlan
Mary walks
down to the water's edge
And there she hangs her head
To find herself faded
A shadow of what she once was
She said How long
have I been sleeping
And why do I feel so old
Why do I feel so cold
My heart is saying one thing
But my body won't let go
With trembling
hands she reaches up
A stranger's flesh is offered
And I would be the last to know
I would be
the last the let it show
I would be the last to go

Take her hand she will lead you
Through the fire
oh give you back hope
And hope that you
won't take too much
Respecting what is left
she cradled us
She held us in her arms
Unselfish in her suffering
She could not understand
That no one seemed to
have the time
To cherish what was given
Oh and I would be
the last to know
And I would be the
last to let it show
I would be the last to go

Mary walks

Oh and I would be
the last to know
And I would be the
last to let it show
I would be the last to go
