Lyrics

"I hated I read it in an email. This one said something like 'Joe ... did you hear about Mary' ... It's all I needed to read ... I knew in a perfect second. No one lives long enough ... Mary sure didn't, and she was about as perfect as perfect gets. She worked with my favorite people ... little people ... We all knew how unique she was. She was a beauty and impossible to get to know and I loved that ... I still miss you and I always will ... She might have believed in God and I guess He took her away. You lose people to that god-damned moon and the yellow sky, but I am sure they are always there -- you just have to look a little bit. So those violins and cellos and oohs and ahs are all there for Mary ... Like the way she walked into a room."

Mary - From the Mad July EP
Listen to Mary

We lost you, We lost you
We lost you to the silver moon
 
God-damned moon
With a white-out sky
I guess we lost you to your savior
 
Chorus:
(Did ya) Did ya hear about her
(Did ya hear it) Did ya hear about her
Did you hear about Mary
(Did ya) Did ya hear about her
(Did ya hear it) Did ya hear about her
Did you hear about Mary
 
Always there
Always there
Always there in the yellow sky
Always there, but it’s never enough
Never enough when you’re flyin’ by
 
Chorus
 
Wish that I
Could get on that plane
Fly up there to your bedside
 
Chemical shake
With a tremor heart
Shaking eyes and you’re falling apart
 
Chorus
