Cage - Among the Sleep lyrics

(Bringing Mary home)

I was driving down a lonely road on a dark and stormy night

When a little girl by the road side showed up in my head lights

I stopped and she got in the back and in a shaky tone

She said my name is Mary please won't you take me home

She must have been so frightened all alone there in the night

There was something strange about her cause her face was deathly white

She sat so pale and quiet there in the back seat all alone

I never will forget that night I took Mary home

I pulled into the driveway where she told me to go

Got out to help her from the car and opened up the door

But I just could not believe my eyes the back seat was bare

I looked all around the car but Mary wasn't there

A small light shown from the porch a woman opened up the door

I asked about the little girl that I was looking for

Then the lady gently smiled and brushed a tear away

She said it sure was nice of you to go out of your way

But thirteen years ago today in a wreck just down the road

Our darling Mary lost her life and we srill miss her so

So thank you for your trouble and the kindness you have shown

You're the thirteenth one who's been here bringing Mary home

You're the thirteenth one who's been here bringing Mary home
