Mary's Eyes - Janis Ian[00:00:00]

Written by：Janis Ian[00:00:01]

Mary's eyes are startling blue[00:00:13]

And her hair's newcastle gold[00:00:17]

And she walks the thin white line[00:00:21]

Between the body and the soul[00:00:24]

She's as faithful to her history[00:00:28]

As a novice to his fast[00:00:32]

For she is standing on the bones[00:00:35]

Of ireland's past[00:00:38]

She is singing of the troubles[00:00:43]

And a fire in the land[00:00:46]

'Til I can almost feel the famine[00:00:50]

Slipping through my trembling hand[00:00:54]

And I wonder as I hear her[00:00:58]

That the spirit still shines through[00:01:01]

And she can reach across the ocean deep[00:01:05]

And break my heart in two[00:01:09]

Mary's wise as she is foolish[00:01:27]

She's as constant as the tide[00:01:31]

For it's a woman's heart that beats beneath[00:01:34]

That stubborn irish pride[00:01:38]

We are saints and we are sinners[00:01:42]

We are heroes we are thieves[00:01:45]

But we are all of us beginners[00:01:49]

On the road to galilee[00:01:53]

We are singing of the troubles[00:01:56]

And a fire in the land[00:02:00]

'Til I can almost feel the famine[00:02:03]

Slipping through my trembling hand[00:02:07]

And I wonder as I hear her[00:02:11]

That the spirit still shines through[00:02:14]

And she can reach across the ocean deep[00:02:18]

And break my heart in two[00:02:22]

So let us hoist a pint of silence[00:02:41]

To the east where ireland lies[00:02:45]

And we'll stare across the waters[00:02:49]

For a glimpse of mary's eyes[00:02:53]

We are ships without a harbour[00:02:57]

We are sailors on dry land[00:03:00]

And the song goes on forever[00:03:05]

Even though the record can't[00:03:09]

We are singing of the troubles[00:03:13]

And a fire in the land[00:03:17]

'Til I can almost feel the famine[00:03:21]

Slipping through my trembling hand[00:03:25]

And I wonder as I hear her[00:03:28]

How the spirit still shines through[00:03:32]

And she can reach across the ocean deep[00:03:36]

And break my heart in two[00:03:40]
