Mary Skeffington
Mary Skeffington, close your eyesAnd make believe that you are just a girl againGo to sleep tonight, dream of daysWhen you had something there to light the way
Remember a holiday in a north of England townYou slept in a room upstairs on a bed of eiderdown
Mary Skeffington, when you wakeYou mustn't be afraid to face another dayThink of what you had, you'll get byYou've always been a lady, hold your head up high
Look back on your home where you spent the best years of your lifeRemember the man who asked you if you would be his wife
Mary Skeffington, close your eyesAnd make believe that you are just a girl againGo to sleep tonight, dream of daysWhen you had something there to light the way
