1
Mary Jane says, it's all right
2
She's just around the corner from the main light
3
Any day now, it's all right
4
She's standing on the precipice of big time
5
And I know I'm a little uptight
6
I got to go before the sun shines
7
We're just a couple small people squeezing out a life
8
We need a little good time
9
It's not far from here
10
Mary comes and goes
11
Drifting through the scenery
12
Of shallow days below
13
Now that's everybody knows
14
You follow trains out of town
15
And they vanish somewhere under the horizon
16
Yeah well, I saw Mary Jane drag her shadow
17
Down the tracks, stare off in the distance
18
It's not far from here
19
Mary waves 'Hello'
20
Smiling though she's sinking
21
In the shallow days below
22
Oh no, I can't find a way out of here
23
Out on the road again
24
I'm much, much too concerned about Mary Jane
25
I'm all alone again and
26
I like what she said but not what it means
27
She leaves me drowning
28
Through the shallow days down below
29
You know I heard a band
30
Playing waltzes in a grange hall
31
The sun is sinking lower
32
People staring, Mary Jane humming softly to herself
33
And nobody really knows her
34
Any day now it's all right
35
She tells herself that this will be the last time
36
Then Mary Jane pulls her hair back and wonders
37
What she'll do with all her free time
38
Not too far from here
39
Mary turns to go
40
Smiling while the waltz begins
41
Dancing down the road
42
Hey, hey, hey, hey, Mr. Freedom
43
What are we supposed to think?
44
'Cause I'm a very tiny person and it worries me
45
I'm all alone again and
46
I like what she says but not what it means
47
She leaves me drowning
48
In the shallow days way down below
49
"I'm sorry", she said
50
"I know it's not the kind of thing you want"
51
I'm falling, falling down
52
"I'm sorry", she said
53
"I know I'm not the kind of girl you want"
54
We're falling, falling, falling, falling down
