Wind Cries Mary - Caron Wheeler

After all the jacks are in their boxes

And the clowns have all gone to bed

You can hear happiness staggering on down the street

Footprints dressed in red

A broom is drearily sweeping

Up the broken pieces of yesterday’s life

Somewhere a queen is weeping

Somewhere a king has no wife

And the wind cries Mary

Blow lover never wanna hear you cry

And the wind cries Mary

Blow lover never wanna hear you cry

The traffic lights they turn blue tomorrow

Shining their emptiness down on my bed

Oh yes they do

A tiny island sags downstream

Because the life that was lived is dead

Will the wind ever remember

The name it has blown in the past?

And with his crutch, its old age, and its wisdom

It screams no, this will be the last

Ohh show them what you got

Somewhere a queen is weeping

A king has no wife, Mary
