Douglas Wayne - Mary Believe Lyrics

The cross you carry weighs on my mind
I'd kneel to wash your feet but the river's run dry
The sins that gather like dust on the sill
Aren't so quickly wiped away they linger still
Look at me tell me what you see
Your slave to redemption
Your constant sympathy
Mary believe...

Can't sweep away the past like leaves off the porch
Can't bend the iron without a flame in the forge
Miscellaneous things confuse good with bad
Make you question what you thought you had
Look at me tell me what you see
Your slave to redemption
Your constant sympathy
Mary believe...

The cross I carry weighs on your mind
Feel like a drifter tryin' to hitch a ride
On a long stretch of highway but no-one slows down
Don't think I can make it to the next town
Look at me tell me what you see
Your slave to redemption
Your constant sympathy...

Mary believe
And lay back down beside me
C'mon Mary believe
Someday soon it gets easy
Mary believe
And lay back down beside me
C'mon Mary believe
Someday soon it gets easy
C'mon Mary believe
