Nothing's quite as pretty

"Mary in the morning"

Nothing's quite as pretty
As Mary in the morning
When through the sleepy haze
I see her lying there
Soft as the rain that falls
On summerflowers
Warm as the sunlight
Shining on her head

When I awake and see her
There so close beside me
I want to take her in my arms,
The ache is there
So deep inside me

Nothing's quite as pretty
As Mary in the morning
Chasing the rainbow in her dreams
So far away
And when she turns to touch me
I kiss her fingers so softly
And then my Mary wake to love
And love again

And Mary's there in summer days
Or stormy weather
She doesn't care how right or wrong
The love we share,
We share together

Nothing's quite as pretty
As Mary in the evening
Kissed by the shade of night
And starlight in her hair
And as we walk,
I hold her close beside me
All our tomorrows
For a lifetime
We will share
