Marshall Crenshaw - Mary Jean lyrics

(m. crenshaw) She came into my life like a bombshell One look and i fell for little mary jean She walked cool with her head always held high The glow in her eyes made her look like a queen A little queen, mary jean She took a hold of my heart and held me under a spell I guess she knew me real well Just why we hung together through all those tears I couldn't tell you now in a million years I didn't think that the cause of my downfall Would be pretty and small like little mary jean And i couldn't know when i held her that first night (feeling ever so right) that one day it would end In a scene. mary jean Now she's gone yes she's gone and i think i'll be alright But then the phone rings at night She's on the line again and it's just no fun We've got a bad connection, mary i've gotta run Hey now i just had to tell her to go away It's so unexciting around here today I'm standing here looking down at my shoes With a case of the blues over little mary jean She was so pretty and small She was the cause of my downfall We used to fuss and fight And i dream about her every single night
