Gerry Rafferty - Mary Skeffington lyrics



Mary Skeffington, close your eyes

And make believe that you are just a girl again

Go to sleep tonight, dream of days

When you had something there to light the way.

Remember a holiday in a north-of-England town

You slept in a room upstairs on a bed of eiderdown.

Mary Skeffington, when you wake

You mustn't be afraid to face another day

Think of what you have, you'll get by

You've always been a lady so hold your head up high.

Look back on a home where you spent the best years of your life

Remember the man who asked you if you would be his wife.

Mary Skeffington, close your eyes

And make believe that you are just a girl again

Go to sleep tonight, dream of days

When you had something there to light the way.
