Lyrics

[male

slow

steady

kick)

Oh,

Mary.

The

house

is

quiet

now.

The

kids

are

asking

where

you

went.

I

don't

know

what

to

tell

them

anymore.

You

took

the

flight

across

the

ocean

blue

Years

have

turned

to

decades,

I've

been

waiting

for

you

The

diaspora

lights,

they

shine

so

bright

on

your

face

While

I'm

stuck

here

in

the

shadows

of

this

empty

place

Two

little

hearts

are

beating,

calling

out

your

name

I'm

left

with

all

the

silence

and

the

weight

of

all

this

blame

Why

did

I

say

yes

to

that

golden

dream

of

yours?

Now

I’

m

just

a

ghost

behind

these

locked

and

heavy

doors.

Mary,

the

wind

is

cold

without

you

here

I’

m

wiping

away

a

decade's

worth

of

every

single

tear

Two

children

growing

up,

they

don't

know

your

touch

Did

you

find

a

life

that’

s

worth

leaving

us

so

much?

Mary,

the

distance

is

a

canyon

deep

and

wide

I’

ve

got

nowhere

left

to

run,

nowhere

left

to

hide.

I

replay

the

tapes,

the

day

you

walked

through

the

gate

I

should

have

held

your

hand,

I

should

have

sealed

your

fate

But

I

thought

you’

d

come

back,

I

thought

it

was

a

phase

Now

I’

m

lost

in

the

middle

of

these

lonely,

broken

days

They

say

that’

s

how

life

goes,

just

a

gamble

in

the

dark

But

your

absence

left

a

fire

that

didn't

leave

a

spark

I’

m

playing

both

the

roles,

the

father

and

the

ghost

Trying

to

remember

the

things

I

miss

the

most.

Mary,

the

wind

is

cold

without

you

here

I’

m

wiping

away

a

decade's

worth

of

every

single

tear

Two

children

growing

up,

they

don't

know

your

touch

Did

you

find

a

life

that’

s

worth

leaving

us

so

much?

Mary,

the

distance

is

a

canyon

deep

and

wide

I’

ve

got

nowhere

left

to

run,

nowhere

left

to

hide.

Maybe

it’

s

my

fault,

for

the

way

I

let

you

go

Thinking

that

the

seeds

we

planted,

you

would

help

them

grow

But

you’

re

a

thousand

miles

away,

and

I’

m

a

thousand

miles

behind

Trying

to

scrub

your

memory

from

a

tired,

aching

mind.

I

see

your

reflection

in

the

eyes

of

your

son

I

see

your

quiet

spirit

when

the

day

is

finally

done

It’

s

a

cruel

kind

of

irony,

a

heart

that’

s

split

in

two

Living

for

the

children,

while

I’

m

dying

for

you

No

anger

left

to

give,

just

an

hollow,

aching

space

Trying

to

find

a

future

that

I’

ve

never

had

to

face.

Mary,

the

wind

is

cold

without

you

here

I’

m

wiping

away

a

decade's

worth

of

every

single

tear

Two

children

growing

up,

they

don't

know

your

touch

Did

you

find

a

life

that’

s

worth

leaving

us

so

much?

Mary,

the

distance

is

a

canyon

deep

and

wide

I’

ve

got

nowhere

left

to

run,

nowhere

left

to

hide. (

Music

stripping

back

to

just

keys)

Yeah,

that’

s

what

we

call

life,

I

guess.

Just

shadows.

Just

silence.

Mary.

Are

you

ever

coming

home? (
