Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mary is a singer
She plays in a band
People watch her sing
She's a real dead ringer
For the girl that I loved in the street
I lived back then
[PreChorus]
She gets high at night
She's always on my mind
Wrecked and stranded
Skies on fire
[Chorus]
But it's high time
To take your hands off the wheel
Crash in the ditch
Like a lifeline
Guess the fussing and the fighting
Was just a glitch, oh, yeah
What she wants, she can't decide
I said, "Let me make up your mind"
[Verse 2]
Mary thinks she is a sinner
Give herself a hard time
Never good enough
Is she a loser or a winner?
Well, the hearts and the minds
Of the people that hear her sing
[PreChorus]
Believe her every night
Yeah, she just rolls her eyes
Every time I tell her why
[Chorus]
That it's high time
To take your hands off the wheel
Crash in the ditch
Like a lifeline
Guess the fussing and the fighting
Was just a glitch, oh, yeah
What she wants, she can't decide
I said, "Let me make up your mind"
[Verse 3]
Yeah, Mary is a singer
With desires of the heart
Dances when she can
Waves crashing when I'm with her
And the passion of the tides in the seas we swim
Oh, yeah
[PreChorus]
We're laughing when we're high
We talk until it's light
But will this bird take flight and fly
[Chorus]
'Cause it's high time
To take your hands off the wheel
Crash in the ditch
Like a lifeline
Guess the fussing and the fighting
Was just a glitch, oh, yeah
Yeah, she gets high at night
What she got you can't deny
What she wants, she can't decide
I said, let me make up your mind
