Mary lyrics

From the album: True North, Released 11.14.2000
Interscope Records/Farmclub.com

I woke up and Mary was still gone
Thought if I stopped hurting she would come back
To me
Walk right through the door and say, "Ahhh huhhhh!
I was only joking - didn`t you look silly crying!"
But I wake up and Mary is still gone
I looked at the clock and it was
Still
Lying on the floor exactly where I threw it
Both hands smashed against its silver face
My feeble attempt to stop
Time but time goes on
And I wake up and Mary is still gone
Chorus:
Mary was it necessary 
To leave before the party
I know it`s selfish to say
You always brought the cake now
What will I eat with all these tears?
I looked at the list and saw her name
Kick myself, she never got an invitation
Kid myself, I`m sure somehow she knew
My stupid attempt to find
Some way to move on
But I wake up and Mary is still gone
Mary is still gone
