Mary knew, she didn't ask why
She tries to find a place to hide
Mary was born with a secret smile
She kept her fingers on the steering wheel
People and places painted black
Mary Jones ain't coming back
She tied her shoes the final time
She kissed my cheek, so I tied mine
Mary knew it couldn't happen here. Not for her
People and places, moments missed
Here I sit in all of this
When she was young, the sky went on forever
Just like the sky before her
Just like the road beside her
It's easy
One more light goes out tonight
All its heavy headlights bright
Mary says we'll be alright
People and places painted black
Mary Jones ain't coming back
