Vanessa Carlton - Little Mary

Little Mary takes a walk
With her perfect hair and perfect heart
And happy as can be
Little Mary

Mary it’s just visual I don’t think it’s real
Inside I think she’s me
Well I could be wrong could be right
Don’t think it matters
Cause little Mary sings her song and wipes away her tears

Little Mary don’t you worry
You're perfect all around
No wounds or worries on your head
Just please come back down

Drop a line my way
You say it Mary, say it Mary
Don’t be afraid to reveal
It’s this preconceived notion that everybody's got
That little girls are perfect and angry they are not

And little Mary don’t you worry
You're perfect all around
No wounds or worries on your head
Just please come back down

Oh little Mary
Don’t you jump now
Little Mary show them who you are
Show them what you are
And little Mary takes a fall
All the way to heaven

Her feelings always trapped inside her perfect little heart
Her image is secure
She had to do what she had to do
To keep a perfect little Mary
It’s always a perfect little Mary that falls
She falls
And it’s always a perfect little Mary that falls
Mary falls

Little Mary don’t you worry
You're perfect all around
No wounds or worries on your head
Just please come back down
