The Thoughts Of Mary Jane lyrics

Who can know

The thoughts of mary jane

Why she flies

Or goes out in the rain

Where she's been

And who she's seen

In her journey to the stars.

Who can know

The reasons for her smile

What are her dreams

When they've journeyed for a mile

The way she sings

And her brightly coloured rings

Make her the princess of the sky.

Who can know

What happens in her mind

Did she come from a strange world

And leave her mind behind

Her long lost sighs

And her brightly coloured eyes

Tell her story to the wind.

Who can know

The thoughts of mary jane

Why she flies

Or goes out in the rain

Where she's been

And who she's seen

In her journey to the stars.
