Lyrics Mary, Don't You Weep - Bodies Of Water

Mary, Don't You Weep

I will be a bridge for you, over what is dark and deep
I will be an arrow to what is out beyond our reach
But even though you’re far away
Mary, don’t you weep, oh Martha don’t you moan
Sheri don’t you cry, oh Laura don’t you groan
Pharaoh’s army got drowned beneath the sea
All those horses paid the price, oh Mary
I will be a splint for you, keeping what is broken true
I will be a thresher to, pull away the tare from you
But underneath the amber waves
Mary, don’t you weep, oh Martha don’t you moan
Sheri don’t you cry, oh Laura don’t you groan
Out beyond the deep, underneath the sea
There are bodies crumbling, oh Sheri
On dappled forest floor, your voice had gone away
But our eyes were there, oh, and they are closing
Their eyes
I will be a bridge for you, over what is dark and deep
I will be an arrow to what is out beyond our reach
But in the still and dreamless night
Mary, don’t you weep, oh Martha don’t you moan
Sheri don’t you cry, oh Laura don’t you groan
At the end of time, when your family’s dead
You will have the one you love instead
