You're covered in slashes You're covered in wilderness You're covered in stains
You cast aside the sheet You cast aside the shroud Of another man Who served the world proud You greet another son
You lose another one
Jesus says Mother I couldn't stay another day longer
Jesus says Mother I couldn't stay another day longer Flys right by me and leaves a kiss upon her face
While the angels are singin' his praises in a blaze of glory
Mary she moves behind me Mary she moves behind me She leaves her fingerprints everywhere Everytime the snow drifts Everytime the sand shifts Even when the night lifts
Jesus said Mother I couldn't stay another day longer
Jesus said Mother I couldn't stay another day longer Flys right by me and leaves a kiss upon her face While the angels are singin' his praises in a blaze of glory
Mary you're covered in roses Mary you're covered in roses
you're covered in ruin You're covered in secrets
Your'e covered in treetops
You're covered in birds Who can sing a million songs without any words You cast aside the sheets You cast aside the shroud Of another man Who served the world proud You greet another son You lose another one On some sunny day and always stay
