LYRICS
You were born
With it inside
A secret twin in your wounded side
Bits of hair
Teeth and string
And yellow flowers
Open up
Let it all in
Let the strange parade begin
A piece of pie
A piece of cake
For every sister
Let the eyes of Mary carry you away now
Let the eyes of Mary carry you away now
A baby born
It’s made of leaves
And carried round the maypole tree
By Irish girls
With jet black hair
And dark brown freckles
Let me bring
You bits of string
Tired and worn and sagging things
Under the weight
Of old crow’s feet
And the seasons
Let the eyes of Mary carry you away now
Let the eyes of Mary carry you away now
Let the brides of Jesus carry you away now
Yeah let the brides of Jesus carry you away now
Away now
Away
