"Sweet Mary" lyrics - WEEZER

WEEZER
"Sweet Mary"
(Josh Alexander / Rivers Cuomo)

[Chorus:]
When I am all on my own
One foot is in the grave
My Sweet Mary comes
To help me to find my way
So I give her my thanks
I don't know what I would do
Without out my Sweet Mary love
To help me to make it through

Ghost come out at nighttime
I hear the rumble of thunder
Flashes of light to follow her
Wherever she goes so pretty
But I will never ever touch her
'Cause if I did she might die
I just smile and look on
As she leads me to the wondrous sights

[Chorus:]
When I am all on my own
One foot is in the grave
My Sweet Mary comes
To help me to find my way
So I give her my thanks
I don't know what I would do
Without out my Sweet Mary love
To help me to make it through

What did I do to deserve this
Give my life to a tiger
Give my last food and water
To a strange wayfarer
I'm so blessed in this life
I wanna show my gratitude
She is so beautiful when she flies
I wanna see her fly high away

[Bridge 3x:]
Who is she?
I wanna know
Who is she?
(My heart is stolen)
I wanna know
(My heart is stolen)

[Chorus:]
When I am all on my own
One foot is in the grave
My Sweet Mary comes
To help me to find my way
So I give her my thanks
I don't know what I would do
Without out my Sweet Mary love
To help me to make it through
