[Verse 1] Oh the cold wet wind blew over the heather You wrote Charlie and Mary for forever On the back of a rock That you picked up on the way And in that perfect moment I nearly ruined it By saying I love you And nearly meaning it But you know I would never waste those words Oh when I last saw Mary She lied and said it was her birthday Oh when I last saw mary She lied and said it was her birthday [Verse 2] But then she tried to kiss me And I said don't bother You know we don't really love one another And there's no use In burning out this flame Oh but then things changed in a way I couldn't predict She said I love you and it suddenly clicked That she was only saying what she wanted me to hear [Bridge] And I said Please don't lie to me Mary And I said Please don't lie to me Mary I said Please don't lie Oh it makes me cry in bed Oh I said Please don't lie Oh it makes me cry in bed Oh I said Please don't lie Oh it makes me cry in bed [Outro] But she said Shut your mouth You don't know what you're talking about Oh she said Shut your mouth You don't know what you're talking about
