Mary’s got a tune to sing you tonight
a song that she learned from the willow tree
listen can’t you hear when the breezes blow
sorrow through the branches one bends to the ground

Hear her when she cries
Feel her when she sighs

The crowd’s thinning out some tables are free
many have seen the fool out the door
time’s running out for those who don’t know
one hour left she goes on her way

Hear her when she cries
Feel her when she sighs

Hear her when she cries
Feel her when she sighs

Case in her hand down the cold avenue
she walks through the night, many more than some
climbing the stairs to a bed on the floor
lights of the city do their dance on the wall

Hear her when she cries
Feel her when she sighs

Tears for no eyes she tells you that’s so
covered with anger yet still shows the truth
one worthy heartache can strengthen your soul
why did it happen to her just the same

Hear her when she cries
Feel her when she sighs
