Mary’s got a boyfriend. She says his name is Bill
He moved her to the country, up on a great big hill.
Well, she didn’t like the quiet or the settling down
So, Mary’s on her way to a boy uptown
Now Mary’s got a boyfriend. She says his name is Dave
He’s just another lone free bird who doesn’t care to shave
Well he doesn’t have a penny, and she likes her fine wine
So Mary’s on her way on down the line
Cause Mary’s got a boyfriend in every state
Mary’s got a boyfriend sneaking out late
She’s always looking for something new
You better look out Mary’s coming for you
So now, Mary’s got a boyfriend. She met him online
It hurt her when she found out he already has wife
Well she never even met him, but it hurts just the same
So mary got a boyfriend to ease her pain
Now Mary’s new boyfriend, yea she swears that he’s the one.
He likes to watch the movies and have a little fun
Well he treats her like a lady, and she thought that’d be enough
But Mary’s already filling up the truck
Cause Mary’s got a boyfriend to pass the time
Mary’s got boyfriends waiting in line
She’s always looking for something new
Oh you better look out Mary’s coming for you
She’ll get you when you’re sleeping in the night
She’s faster than the speed of light
No man is safe. What can you do?
Oh you better look out Mary’s coming for you
Now Mary’s got a boyfriend. He’s a classy, lawyer type
He’s tall and good looking, but she doesn’t get the hype
Well, he may be smart to some, but to her, he’s a game
And according to Mary they’re all the same
Cause Mary’s got a boyfriend in every town. She never plans on sticking around
She’ll love you till your time is through. You better look out Mary’s coming for you
There’s nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. Her hunting ground is nationwide.
No man is safe. What can you do? Oh you better look out Mary’s coming for you.
Oh you better look out, Mary’s coming for you. Oh you better look out, Mary’s coming for you.

Lifetime for Two

I know what I want to say,
But the words float beyond my reach
And I might know the cause,
I just haven’t found something strong enough,
To convey.
That light you send into my darkness,
The thing that goes a little deeper than,
Loving you,
And the thing that makes a lifetime for two.
Oh, as sure as the sun
Will rise above all the clouds e’ry morn.
And I will wake by your side,
And thank the stars that again hide away.
In that light you shed into my darkness,
The thing that goes a little deeper than,
Loving you,
And the thing that makes a lifetime for two.
It took some heartbreak to alter the lens
Of the eye in my mind.
But everyday since I fell in love with you,
And I say why, oh how nice, It was to find.
That light you shine into my darkness,
The thing that goes a little deeper than,
Loving you,
Deeper than loving you,
A little deeper than loving you,
And the thing that makes a lifetime for two.
And I’m grateful that I get to spend it with you.

The Man I Used to Know
05:11

Inside or outside there is no place I would rather go than
Where it is that I may find the man I used to know.
Back in the day when all it’d take would be for you to smile,
And you would light the room, now you’ve left it dark awhile, and I want to know.
What were you thinking of? It wasn’t you and me?
Did you feel happiness in your final breath?
Inside or outside there is no place I would rather go than
Where it is that I may find the man I used to know.
There was a time when all it’d take for you to catch my eye
Is to walk into my view, now your ghost is right nearby, and I want to know.
What were you thinking of? It wasn’t you and me?
It sure was not happiness when I found you, when I found you… dead!
When I found you, I found you, I found you, I found you! What were you thinking of?
It wasn’t you and me? It wasn’t you and me? It sure wasn’t me!
Inside or outside there is no place I would rather go than
Where it is that I may find the man I used to know.

Saturday

I almost forgot that you were gone
I know it hasn’t even been that long
Still every day I call you on the phone
And then I just pretend that you’re not home
They say I should be over it by now
That letting go is good for me somehow
But I would rather waste my time away
Talking to the ghost in front of me
Because, I only feel alive when I can feel you
That’s why I still do things the way we always used to
So, on Saturday I’ll run away
To the place where we would waste the night away
And then I’ll take the long way home, down that old dirt road,
The radio playing out your favorite song
And for a moment, I almost forgot that you were gone
I see the way the people stop and stare
When they catch me talking to this empty chair
I know it’s not the normal thing to do
But it’s the only hope I have of getting through
Because the morning light reminds me I’m without you
It’s something that I never wanted to get used to
So, on Saturday I’ll run away
To the place where we would waste the night away
And then I’ll take the long way home, down that old dirt road,
The radio playing out your favorite song
And for a moment, I almost forgot that you were gone
I dream that you are out in California
Living life that way it’s meant to be
But deep down I know the dream is over
I’ll do anything to keep you close to me
That’s why on Saturday, I’ll find my way
To the place where we would waste all our time away
And then I’ll take the long way home, down that old dirt road,
The radio playing out your favorite song
Yea, you know the one, when you turn it on
You just can’t help but to lose yourself
In the memories of you and me
They all come flooding back to me
And in that moment, It was only a moment… How I remember the moment,
When I almost forgot that you were gone

Look into what I’ve stumbled
I never saw it comin’
Given the room, my mind’s wide open
Lucky to find, it might just satisfy
Into the night, there isn’t much light
Except for the fire in your eyes
They’re about to burn the whole place down
I feel the flame upon the ground
Into the night, there isn’t much light
Except for the fire in your eyes
You scorched the Earth on which I run
And now a new life has begun
There was a taking over
Nothing in mind said fight it
Given my heart away to a long, lost cause
Set it a flame, it might just satisfy
Into the night, there isn’t much light
Except for the fire in your eyes
They’re about to burn the whole place down
I feel the flame upon the ground
Into the night, there isn’t much light
Except for the fire in your eyes
You scorched the Earth on which I run
And now a new life has begun
