Mary Skeffington
Mary Skeffington, close your eyes
And make believe that you
Were just a girl again
Go to sleep tonight, dream of days
When you had something there
To light the way
Remember a holiday
In a north of England town
You slept in a room upstairs
On a bed of eiderdown
Mary Skeffington, when you wake
You mustn't be afraid
To face another day
Think of what you have, you'll get by
You've always been a lady
So hold your head up high
Look back in a home
Where you spent the best years of your life
Remember the man who asked you
If you would be his wife
Mary Skeffington, close your eyes
And make believe that you
Were just a girl again
Go to sleep tonight, dream of days
When you had something there
To light the way
