Not the Mary you are thinking of, if you are a reader here. This is Sarah’s Mary. What brought me to Sarah was “Angel”, through the movie. But it was never that. It was Mary. :^). Always Mary. I think every song Sarah has ever recorded but this one is on the web, on youtube. I don’t know why I am so attracted to this song. jen says I will know, but I don’t yet. It just haunts me. She sings it to me ALL the time. And this young chinese woman who tries her best to sing it too. There is a synchronicity here that I am missing. So what I’m going to do is just post the lyrics.<\/p>\n
Mary walks Take her hand I believe, ultimately, this is the<\/strong> woman who will lead us through the fire, unselfishly. Perhaps, okay definitely, not yet born, :^). But her day will<\/em><\/strong> come.\u00a0 Mary. \u00a0 gawd i love this song…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Not the Mary you are thinking of, if you are a reader here.

\ndown to the water’s edge
\nand there she hangs her head
\nto find herself faded
\na shadow of what she once was
\nShe said “How long have I been sleeping
\nand why do I feel so old
\nwhy do I feel so cold
\nmy heart is saying one thing but my body won’t let go”
\nWith trembling hands she reaches up
\na stranger’s flesh is offered
\nand I would be the last to know
\nI would be the last the let it show
\nI would be the last to go<\/em><\/p>\n
\nshe will lead you through the fire
\ngive you back hope
\nand hope that you won’t take too much
\nrespecting what is left
\nshe cradled us
\nshe held us in her arms
\nunselfish in her suffering she could not understand
\nthat no one seemed to have the time
\nto cherish what was given
\nand I would be the last to know
\nand I would be the last to let it show
\nI would be the last to go…
\nMary walks.<\/em><\/p>\n
