Light the candle Mary
lets share a glass afore bed
outside the stars are dimly glittering
a dull and shimmering red
 
Dust off the old computer Mary
give the screen a wipe
remember when we were all one
and didn't use candle light
 
Come sit beside me Mary
we'll remember times of long ago
the harvests and the wine
our children's eyes aglow
 
Mary, Mary, Mary
when I close my eyes i see
an angel all aglow
reaching down for me.
 
Mary my companion
there is something untold strange
when i looked into the angel's face
it was your face that i saw!
