Lyrics
The lights shine down the valley
The lights illuminate the valley.
The wind blows up the alley
The wind is blowing up the alley.
Oh how I wish I were lying in the
The speaker expresses a strong desire to be in the arms of Mary.
Arms of Mary
Reiteration of the longing to be in Mary's embrace.
She took the pains of boyhood
Mary helped the speaker overcome the challenges of boyhood.
And turned them into feel good
Mary transformed the speaker's difficulties into positive experiences.
Oh hw I wish I were lying in the
Reiteration of the speaker's wish to be in Mary's arms.
Arms of Mary
Expressing a strong desire to be in the comforting embrace of Mary.
Mary was the girl who taught me all I had
Mary played a crucial role in teaching the speaker life lessons.
To know--she put me right on my first mistake
Mary corrected the speaker's initial mistake and guided them.
Summer wasn't gone when I'd learned all she had
The speaker learned from Mary even before the end of summer.
To show--she really gave all a boy could take
Mary generously shared all she had to offer with the speaker.
So now when I feel lonely
The speaker experiences loneliness and seeks someone special.
Still looking for the one and only
Still searching for the ideal partner, the one and only.
That's when I wish I were lying in the
Expressing the desire to be in Mary's arms when feeling lonely.
Arms of Mary
Reiteration of the strong wish to be held by Mary.
Mary was the girl who taught me all I had
Recalling Mary's role in teaching important life lessons.
To know--she put me right on my first mistake
Mary guided the speaker by pointing out their initial mistake.
Summer wasn't gone when I'd learned all she had to show
The speaker learned from Mary before the end of summer.
She really gave all a boy could take...
Mary provided the speaker with everything they needed.
The lights shine down the valley
The lights illuminate the valley once again.
The wind blows up the alley
The wind is blowing up the alley once again.
Oh how I wish I were lying in the
Reiteration of the strong desire to be in the arms of Mary.
Arms of Mary
Expressing a strong wish to be held in Mary's comforting embrace.
