Lyric

Mary called last night 
it was really rather routine 
she once told me I saved her life 
and I called her a drama queen 

but that was Mary 
a diva of the meek 

Mary called last night 
She didn't have any pain 
maybe you can be like her 
if i can touch you from this far away 

you'd be like Mary 
before she went away 

I saw my father once 
in a quiet side of the yard 
In a spot I'd forgot as the years grew hard 

Mary called last night 
then I took my truck on the road 
I struck my fist upon the dash 
cause I had to get back to the phone 

I remembered Mary 
she died two years ago
