[Verse 1]
Give me mercy and a minute now
I'ma bleed a little poison out
I'ma cry a little river down
And then I'm setting this whole thing on fire
And I'm burning up the night she died
And I'm putting every last picture aside
I'm gonna say what I need to say
In my very last letter to you
[Verse 2]
'Cause you always made it clear
Said that you'd never be my pain
So here's to you and your bright baby blues
And just a pause to cool the refrain
And you said you were satisfied
And now this body just waited the tide
And that you missed him sometimes but you said it's alright
It's just a whole lot harder alone
[Chorus]
But I wish you knew her now, she's a better side of me now
And I'm doing the best I can, it's what you wanted
And I see you like you were there and I know just how you'd smile
Mary, you looked just like it was 1930 that night
Give me mercy and a minute now
I'ma bleed a little poison out
I'ma cry a little river down
And then I'm setting this whole thing on fire
And I'm burning up the night she died
And I'm putting every last picture aside
I'm gonna say what I need to say
In my very last letter to you
[Verse 2]
'Cause you always made it clear
Said that you'd never be my pain
So here's to you and your bright baby blues
And just a pause to cool the refrain
And you said you were satisfied
And now this body just waited the tide
And that you missed him sometimes but you said it's alright
It's just a whole lot harder alone
[Chorus]
But I wish you knew her now, she's a better side of me now
And I'm doing the best I can, it's what you wanted
And I see you like you were there and I know just how you'd smile
Mary, you looked just like it was 1930 that night
