Mary-Ann Video (MV)

We were tired of the phone calls, we were tired of the news
There was something so different about losing you
When the phone started ringing in the early part of dawn
We knew before we answered that you were gone

And the angels were singing, as we closed our teary eyes again
And the bells started ringing, as he welcomed home his Mary Ann
His Mary Ann

It's been such a long year, yes it's been such a trial
Would you mind if I just sat here for a while
I've heard you're good to talk to, and there's so much left to say
Like "why do good things have to go away" - they go away

And your daughters were singing, as you closed your weary eyes again
And the phone kept on ringing
As you said your prayers with beads still in your hands

And we sang Joy, mother you're full of grace, look at my face
Joy, mother, fruit of your womb, lights up the room

And we sing songs, you sing along as good as you can
As we sing Joy mother, Mary Ann

And we sing songs, you sing along as good as you can
And we sing your song, and we'll sing it strong
As long as we can - as long as we can

Yes we'll sing, Joy, mother - Joy, mother
Joy, mother, we'll sing joy, mother - Mary Ann
