"Mary" lyrics - PETE TOWNSHEND

Mary, you are everything a man could want,
And I want you, Mary.
Did you know when you pushed me once away from you
The thing I knew grew inside me.

People are dancing for you now,
But I can't see why.
Can't they see that they can't beat
Nothing I have for you.

Mary, you are everything a man could need.
How I need you, Mary.
Yeah.
How I need you.

When I look at the hole in your coat.
I have to love you more.
I remember when I was a child
And my brother slept on the floor.

Oh, I know that the sun don't shine
Down on every man.
But when women let the my brother down.
I swore one day I'd land
Me one Mary
Swore I'd land me one Mary.
Oh, Mary.

When I look at the hole in your coat.
I have to love your more.
I remember when I was a child.
My brother slept on the floor.

Oh, I know that the sun don't shine.
Down on every man.
But when the woman let my brother down.
I swore one day, I'd land me mary.
I swore I'd land me mary.
