Mary in the Morning

(Johnny Cymbal - Michael Lendell)



Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning

When through a sleepy haze I see her lyin' there

Soft as the rain that falls on summer flowers

Warm as the sunlight shining on her golden hair. mhm



When I awake and see her there

So close beside me

I want to take her in my arms

The ache is there so deep inside me.



Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning

Chasing a rainbow in her dream so far away.

And when she turns to touch it I kiss her face so softly

And then my Mary wakes to love another day. mhm



And Mary's there in sunny days

Or stormy weather

She doesn't care 'cause right or wrong

The love we share we share together.



Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the evening

Kissed by the shades of night and starlight in her hair

And as we walk I hold her close beside me

All our tomorrows for lifetime we will share. mhm



And Mary's there in sunny days

Or stormy weather

She doesn't care 'cause right or wrong

The love we share we share together...
