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
Living lines of memory drew the markings on my hands 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 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 Nigh, nigh, nigh, nigh (I love you just the same)
Mary Ethel Roderick, 1912 to '72 Though we never met in flesh, here I remember you Were a woman, you were gentle, you were modest, you were kind A mother, wife and gran, you were a woman of your time 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
She says I am in the living, I am in the dying too I am in the stillness, can you see me as I move? I am in the hawthorn, in the apple and the beech I am in the mayhem, in the medicine of speech 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
