Talking to Mary -
by Elliott Smith
| Talking to Mary | |
| You know you don't have to shout | |
| She can hear what you're thinking | |
| Like you were saying it right out loud | |
| She sees behind | |
| That dirty look | |
| It was her that followed down | |
| Every stupid turn that you took | |
| One day she'll go, I told you so | |
| One day she'll go, I told you so | |
| Saw the one big problem | |
| You keep under your hat | |
| And it's pretty unlikely | |
| That anyone else will be cool with that | |
| You got bus fare in your pocket | |
| And more money down in your sock | |
| But she can't tell you how to contact her | |
| If you won't listen to her talk | |
| One day she'll go, I told you so | |
| One day she'll go, I told you so | |
| It's no problem | |
| I'll just keep quiet if it's easier for you | |
| To make believe in then | |
| That I don't love you as much as I do | |
| One day she'll go, I told you so | |
| One day she'll go, I told you so | |
| I told you so, I told you so |
