5th Floor Mary lyrics
They sailed in a ship they said couldn’t sink
Their journey of dreams was destined to be jinxed
They woke up from the crash in their sleep
The water was so cold, so dark, and so deep
He said ‘If I don’t see you again, wait for me
And when our child is born, name it after me
We’ll never know each other, it just cannot be’
Then he let go of her hand
She could never understand
Why he had to let go
Then he slipped away
Will he ever return if she prays
God only knows, God only knows
God only knows, God only knows
At the hotel she waited till she could wait no more
She prepared the noose and locked the door
Just after midnight she kicked away the chair
In the morning the chambermaid found her hanging there
These visions of Mary flood my eyes
These visions of Mary consume my mind, consume my mind
Mary wanders through the 5th floor hall
You can hear her faintly call
‘Oh Lord bring him back
Bring him back to me
From the lonely sea
Bring him back to me’
Forever Mary will wait
This is to be her fate
Her tormented soul
Will never rest, will never be whole
Without her love she lost at sea
Will forever wander the 5th floor Mary
The 5th floor Mary, the 5th floor Mary
