So come on lady now close your eyes
Let the madness pass on by
Loosen up your golden hair
Stroke away my every care
There's no comfort in strangers
That I can't find right here
Laying down in the arms of sister Mary
Will her loving ever last?
Laying down in the arms of mother Mary
Let the world drift past
For a moment a perfect love
Pure and silent like a star above
Never mind about tomorrow's fears
Peace of mind is here
Outside's a world of strangeness
So I will stay right here
Laying down in the arms of sister Mary
Will her loving ever last?
Laying down in the arms of mother Mary
Let the world drift past
Let her loving come to you
Let her loving come to you
Her love will come to you
And bring you home
Outside's a world of strangers
So I will stay right here
Laying down in the arms of sister Mary
Will her loving ever last?
Laying down in the arms of mother Mary
Nothing more to ask
Laying down in the arms of sister Mary
Will her loving ever last?
Laying down in the arms of mother Mary
Let the world drift past
