Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning

When through a sleepy haze I see her lyin' there

Soft as the rain that falls on summer flowers

Warm as the sunlight shinin' on her golden hair, mhm.



When I wake and see her there so close beside me

I want to take her in my arms

The ache is there so deep inside me

And nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning.



Chasin' a rainbow in the dream so far away

And when she turns to touch it I kiss her face so softly

My Mary wakes to love another day, mhm.



My Mary's there in sunny days or stormy weather

She doesn't care 'cause right or wrong

The love we share we share together

And nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the evening.



Kissed by the shades of night and starlight on her hair

And as we walk I hold her close beside me

Oh, how tomorrows for lifetime we'll share, mhm.



Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning

Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the evening...
