Where are you now
that my sweet Mary done died
Alone, alone, alone
Somewhere you say
where my sweet Mary
Held her grave in her arms
like an infant odyssey
Well you can hush my little darlin'
don't you cry?
Hush beneath the dreams we did roam
cause I do believe it will be
just like the color when the purple sings
When I will know for sure?
She was held to the blade laid down
my sweet Mary dear She laid down
upon the cold winter's floor
and I remember what she said
when she saw the snow turn to red
She said lord let me be the lord Let me be the lord
Well you can hush my little darlin'
don't you cry Hush beneath the dreams we did roam
Cause I do believe it will be
just like the color when the purple sings
when yes this angel will cover us...
