You left me stranded here
Abandoned and alone
With silly memories
Of things I've never known
So when the
mystery
is starting to grow old
Another dream goes by
Like ashes out of gold
[chorus]
Hail Mary
Hail Mary
Hail
Mary
Won't you take my hand
Hail Mary
Forgive me Father for I do not understand
Just like the brightest light
Will
fade away to black
There comes a time when there's
No reason to look back
I gave you everything
I gave you all I had,
And
when it all comes down
I know I won't be sad
[chorus x4]
Forgive me Father for I do not understand
