Lyrics Kevin Morby – Hail Mary

Naomi got married
And Flannery became a dancer
And Ben got a baby girl
‘Fore mama got sick with cancer

I’m still here

?
And to achieve goal
A story told
You got a gift
Now give it to me

And Hail Mary
Oh, go long
May I never
Do you wrong

And Erin flew off the handle
And I went to the funeral
For her, I lit many candles
She was beautiful, I knew her
And Pauline made lots of money
Turned her soul into gold
Said, «Time’s a funny motherfucker»
God’s toll calling by the window

I’m still here

?
In some cheap bar
And I can’t hear

And I cried watching the runners
On the satellite of the marathon
And I dreamt my friend was the winner
And don’t you know it, babe, he was

Oh, I love you
Oh, my child
How the crowd went dizzy
How the crowd went wild
And you, my friend
You feel like fire
As the speakers boomed
A soft Sinatra
New York, New York
It’s us this time
We’re all winning
We’re alive

So Hail Mary
Oh, go long
Cross my heart
Hope I die
In your arms
