Lyrics
Mary, sweet wife
How did you end up in my life?
Beautiful girl, out of all of this world
You chose me to lay down with at night
The colors of spring are vivid and green
Since I looked so deep in your eyes
All of a sudden I'm filled with emotion
With feelings I used to deny
Mary, sweet wife
How did you end up in my life?
Beautiful girl, out of all of this world
You chose me to lay down with at night
You've given me purpose and reason to worship
Someone much stronger than me
Gentle and tender, and always remember
The little things, a man really needs
Mary, sweet wife
How did you end up in my life?
Beautiful girl, out of all of this world
You chose me to lay down with at night
As time moves along, I know we'll belong
To each other, 'til they lay me down
And when even then, I'll take your memory with me
To hold me, when you're not around
Mary, sweet wife
How did you end up in my life?
Beautiful girl, out of all of this world
You chose me to lay down with at night
