[Verse 1]
Mary was my mother's mother and my sister too
There's rain in the river there's a river running through
To the sea around these islands crying tears of sorrow, pain
There's rain in the river there's a river in my veins
Mary young as we may be you know, the blood in you and me
Is as old as blood can be
Is as old as blood can be
As old as blood can be
[Verse 2]
Living lines of memory through the markings on my hand
Ancient lines of living love awaken in this land
Saying I am in the forest, in the city and the field
I am in the bounty come on know me as I yield
I am in the falcon, in the otter and the stoat
I am in the turtle dove with nowhere left to go
And in the moment of blind madness when he's pushing her away
I am in the lover and in the ear who hears her say
Can we begin again, oh baby it's me again
I know you are so different to me, but I love you just the same
I love you just the same
I love you just the same
I love you just the same
I love you just the same
I love you just the same
