[00:18.72]Mary had a little clock that works in its own way,
[00:23.02]just another afternoon in May
[00:27.28]Children playing birds were singing postmen said hello,
[00:32.16]What if Mary wasn't late that day
[00:35.40]
[00:36.67]Johnny was a lonely man who has not much to say
[00:41.05]He's now on the roof to say goodbye
[00:45.42]He was so in love with Mary when she was engaged,
[00:49.70]Sadly he was not her fiance
[00:54.46]
[01:09.73]So God I ask why today,
[01:13.78]are they not dear enough to you?
[01:16.48]Did they not pray?
[01:18.64]Is that how you work your way?
[01:23.65]Now I'm so afraid
[01:27.75]
[01:28.62]To some it was one fine day,
[01:31.85]to them the very end of life well that's their fate
[01:38.07]So that's how people come and go
[01:42.11]What's gonna happen no one knows
[01:46.77]
[01:48.30]Johnny took a breath and quietly he jumped off the roof
[01:53.28]What if Mary wasn't late that day
[01:57.65]
[02:24.81]So God I ask why today,
[02:28.44]are they not dear enough to you?
[02:30.75]Did they not pray?
[02:32.77]Is that how you work your own way?
[02:37.91]Now I'm so afraid
[02:41.46]
[02:42.94]To some it was one fine day,
[02:46.14]to them the very end of life well that's their fate
[02:52.41]So that's how people come and go
[02:56.57]What's gonna happen no one knows
[03:00.47]
[03:00.97]So God I ask why today,
[03:04.03]well she had everything she dreamt of yesterday
[03:08.39]But now the happiness subside
[03:13.59]Will she rest in peace in her own grave?
[03:18.51]Bout' him I dare not say,
[03:21.63]he landed on her head and broke her neck they say.
[03:28.15]So that's how tragic life can be
[03:32.29]Too bad that many still don't see
[03:37.89]
[03:39.72]Mary had a little clock that works in its own way
[03:44.96]Yet she never has another day
[03:52.66]
