Send "Now Mary" Ringtone to Cell

Now Mary
can't you find a way
to bring me down?

I'm so sorry
that I had to go
and let you down

Knowing you I'll think
things are gonna be fine
but then again you'll
probably change your mind

I'm sorry mary but
being your mate
means trying to find something
that you aren't going to hate

What a season
to be beautiful
without a reason

    General Comment:God, sounds like Jack has had his fair share of bad women. He does a lot of love songs for someone who's been married twice and publicly dated once, don't you think?

    General Comment:I think its just about one of those friends who is guaranteed to do/say something to bring you down. Everyone has a friend that makes them feel like shit about themselves.

    General Comment:This song is so good, such a powerful message in under 2 min.

    yea, marktb, i was about to be with a girl like this too. Then I popped in White Blood Cells one day, and once I got to this track, I rethought the whole scenario.

    "I'm sorry mary, but being you mate,
    means trying to find something that you aren't going to hate"

    wow, so good, so concise...i learned to play this on guitar, and one day soon am hoping to play it for her hahaha
