Mary, let that hair down
That dress is gonna cause a scene
It has already made a mess of me
The way the light is cascading down your neck to your collarbone
Tomorrow we'll have some sins to atone

Now this night for fools where we belong
Outside the street lamps they buzz and hum along
And the light from the window
The shadows long

Mary, quit that blushing
That smile is gonna sink this whole room
With every batted eyelash I swoon
On the table Dylan is spinning around 'bout how he knew when he met her
And I know I'm fucked but never been better

Around round and round
We've heard this one before
And our breath, shorter now, we breathe in 4/4
As I lean in close
For a little more

Mary, please just one dance
Come on, you know we can't waste this song
It's one we haven't sung for so long
And as I inch a bit closer I hear your heart, the backbeat of it all
Before this night ends we both might fall

Now night fades to day and becomes embossed
And our hearts all aflutter but at what cost?
So we toast what we gained
And what we lost

So what's a boy to do?
I've waited a lifetime or two for you
As the music plays low your dress sways slow in tune
The naked truth is this
I've never lived before this kiss
Oh, your hands quiver, shake
My heart splinters, breaks in two

The thunder brought us back
Lightning crackled then went black
As we stood there entombed, enshrined, surely doomed by love
The night it grips so loose
Morning light pulls like a noose
Oh your heart black and blue, ripped cleanly through, the scars we choose
Oh your heart black and blue, look mine is too, the scars we choose
