Mary X and Me Lyrics

Kissing goodbye
Mary and I
In moonlight that blinds, her one good eye

Oh Mary-Mary wishing well
Make a wish but never tell
Never tell, how your penny fell

I don't know how!
I don't know when!
But maybe someday, you'll understand
I can explain!
But I'll make you see!
That everything's right for Mary X and Me

Pacing around
Won't bring her down
The ceilings where you like to be, indeed...

I coast-around and think if I would need to share a drink
But I was crawling on the ledge to cut my heart out

I don't know how!
I don't know when!
But maybe someday, you'll understand
I can explain!
But I'll make you see!
That everything's right for Mary X and Me
I don't know how!
And I don't know when!
But maybe someday, you'll understand
I can explain!
But I'll make you see!
That everything's right for Mary X and Me

I don't know how!
I don't know when!
But maybe someday, you'll understand
I can explain!
But I'll make you see!
That everything's right for Mary X and Me
Oh, I don't know how!
I don't know when!
But maybe someday, you'll understand
I can explain!
But I'll make you see!
That everything's right for Mary X and Me
I don't know how, I don't know when (Everything's right for Mary X and Me)
But maybe someday, you'll understand (Everything's right for Mary X and Me)
I can explain, but I'll make you see (Everything's right for Mary X and Me)
That everything's right for Mary X and Me... (Everything's right for Mary X and Me...)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
