- Mary LyricsI was waiting
For a sign of something
Was there only one thing
I could call my own
I was looking
For a new beginning
For a way of winning
All that I was owed
Oh, Mary
How could they see
When I lose it all
You bring it back to me
I was dreaming
Of a new day dawning
With the Monday morning
Running in my eyes
Oh, Mary
How could they know
First they took my heart
Then they break my soul
Oh, Mary
How could they see
When I lose it all
You give it back to me
I was hoping
For a moon at midnight
For a flash of sunlight
In the northern sky
I was searching
For the dreams of dreamers
For the scheme of schemers
Where the modest lie
Oh, Mary
How could they know
First they took my heart
Then they break my soul
Oh, Mary
How could they see
When I lose it all
You give it back to me
Oh, Mary
How could they know
First they took my heart
Then they break my soul
Oh, Mary
How could they see
When I lose it all
You give it back to me
For a sign of something
Was there only one thing
I could call my own
I was looking
For a new beginning
For a way of winning
All that I was owed
Oh, Mary
How could they see
When I lose it all
You bring it back to me
I was dreaming
Of a new day dawning
With the Monday morning
Running in my eyes
Oh, Mary
How could they know
First they took my heart
Then they break my soul
Oh, Mary
How could they see
When I lose it all
You give it back to me
I was hoping
For a flash of sunlight
In the northern sky
I was searching
For the dreams of dreamers
For the scheme of schemers
Where the modest lie
Oh, Mary
How could they know
First they took my heart
Then they break my soul
Oh, Mary
How could they see
When I lose it all
You give it back to me
Oh, Mary
How could they know
First they took my heart
Then they break my soul
Oh, Mary
How could they see
When I lose it all
You give it back to me

✔️
When we reflect on what the artist might have meant, in 'Mary,' Big Country's character is dealing with nothing but loss and sorrow, which is expressed through the metaphor of their heart and soul being repeatedly taken away. Mary is, in this case, a representation of the healing and hope, as the lyrics of the song narrate gradually what was lost. Love, heartbreak, anguish, and thinking are some of the main aspects of the song that are accompanied by despair and darkness. The song still recognizes the search for meaning and purpose in life alongside the theme of loss and restoration. The lyrics do not contain any profanity or descriptions of violence and sexuality. This makes the content universally acceptable.
