"Mary Jane" lyrics - WISHBONE ASH

WISHBONE ASH
"Mary Jane"
(Ian Harris / Muddy Manninen)

You're cruel lover, all take and no give
A bad mother, just let me live
I feel like floating, purged of all pain
Joy and wonder, I'll take you again

You're a mean, mean fiddler
You play with my mind
You're a bad, bad teacher
Making pupils go blind

You're a glimpse of heaven, a trip to the edge
I long to be near you, let's meet on the ledge
Daytime or twilight, darkness and light
Melting quietly and stay up all night

[Chorus:]
Mary Jane, you're a timeless dream
You're multidimensional, if you know what I mean
You float me up gently, slower than slow
And then I come down like glistening snow

You're a cruel lover, all take and no give
A bad mother, just let me live
Dreaming in ether, too good to be true
Senses run riot, am I me or you?

My heart starts racing
But I'm still in control
Retaining connections
Mind body and soul

Mary Jane you lead me through mazes
You always amaze me, you make me go crazy
You show me new places, I take giant steps
Like walking a tightrope with no safety net

[Chorus:]
Mary Jane you're a timeless dream
You're multidimensional, if you know what I mean
You float me up gently, slower than slow
And then I come down like glistening snow
