0:15After all the jacks
0:16Are in their boxes
0:20And the clowns
0:22Have all gone to bed
0:26You can hear happiness
0:28Staggering on down the street
0:32Footprints dressed in red
0:38And the wind whispers Mary
0:48A broom is drearily sweeping
0:53Up the broken pieces of yesterday's life
0:59Somewhere a queen is weeping
1:05Somewhere a king has no wife
1:11And the wind it cries Mary
1:53The traffic lights they
1:55Turn up blue tomorrow
1:59And shine their emptiness
2:01Down on my bed
2:04The tiny island
2:06Sags downstream
2:10'Cause the life that lived is is dead
2:17And the wind screams Mary
2:27Will the wind ever remember
2:32The names it has blown in the past
2:38And with his crutch
2:39It's old age
2:41And it's wisdom
2:43It whispers no
2:45This will be the last
2:50And the wind cries Mary
After all the jacks Are in their boxes And the clowns Have all gone to bed You can hear happiness Staggering on down the street Footprints dressed in red And the wind whispers Mary A broom is drearily sweeping Up the broken pieces of yesterday's life Somewhere a queen is weeping Somewhere a king has no wife And the wind it cries Mary The traffic lights they Turn up blue tomorrow And shine their emptiness Down on my bed The tiny island Sags downstream 'Cause the life that lived is is dead And the wind screams Mary Will the wind ever remember The names it has blown in the past And with his crutch It's old age And it's wisdom It whispers no This will be the last And the wind cries Mary
