Arms Of Mary

The Everly Brothers

Compositor: Iain Sutherland

The lights shine down the valley
The wind blows up the alley
Oh and how I wish I was
Lying in the arms of Mary

She took the pains of boyhood
And turned them into feel good
Oh and how I wish was
Lying in the arms of Mary

Mary was the girl who taught me
All I had to know
She put me right on my first mistake
Summer wasn't gone when I'd learned
All she had to show
She really gave all a boy could take

So now when I feel lonely
Still looking for the one and only
That's when I wish I was
Lying in the arms of Mary

So now when I feel lonely
Still looking for the one and only
That's when I wish I was
Lying in the arms of Mary

Lying in the arms of Mary
Lying in the arms of Mary
Yeah yeah yeah
