Lyrics

Me and Mary had it all worked out
We were tired of living in the rural South
Packed our bags and got upon that plane
Waved goodbye, never seen it again

Ain’t it funny how the memories pass
Too bad the feelin’ doesn’t always last
You get tired, restless and bored
Of four walls with a revolving door

I don’t know how much that time can change
I only hope that I can find her again
Souls of fire, yeah we’re souls of fire

Mary turned into a city girl
She went crazy for a bigger world
I never noticed how the years rolled by
But it’s no surprise, well it’s no surprise

I don’t know how much that time can change
I only hope that I can find her again
Souls of fire, souls of fire
Yeah we’re souls of fire, of fire
My little hearts desire, my little hearts desire
Souls of fire, yeah yeah

I know and I hope it shows
I wanna go wherever Mary goes
I’m callin’ out but there’s no reply
Just empty windows your lover’s eyes

Sometimes I wanna, run away
Just turn the clock up to another day
Different names, faces may change
But everything else just seems to stay the same
Mary left when she was twenty five
Never blinked when she waved goodbye
Packed her bags and got upon that plane
Now I’m never gonna see my little Mary again

Souls of fire, souls of fire
Souls of fire, souls of fire
