lyrics
HENRY
Seven years alone, his garden is overgrown
Where once she grew flowers, its now weeds and overgrown trees
Its now weeds and overgrown trees
He sits on his front porch, with tea made for one
He pours a cup, mumbles something soft
“Mary, you were my everything, and I miss you, oh how I miss you”
Slow steps to the front gate, he stands there a while
Watching the streets, the cars going by
All these people, with somewhere to go
All these people, and none that he knows
Sun sets its time to turn in, he turns on his beside lamp
Closes his eye, he lets out a sigh
With his hand on the pillow where her white hair would flow
and his body holds a shape like he was holding her close
And he dreams that she comes to him in this dark night
And she appears like an angel surrounded with light
“Henry, my love. You are my one.
You are my everything
and I miss you, oh how I miss you
and I love you, oh how I love you…
Now pull up those weeds and trim back those trees,
plant me some flowers and pour me a tea
Henry I’ve never left your dear side,
for you are my husband and I am your wife
for you are my husband and I am your wife
Oh Henry, if you ever feel alone
Just look to the flowers, the flowers you grow
And I’ll be standing by the prettiest rose.”
Seven years alone, his garden is overgrown
Where once she grew flowers, its now weeds and overgrown trees
Its now weeds and overgrown trees
He sits on his front porch, with tea made for one
He pours a cup, mumbles something soft
“Mary, you were my everything, and I miss you, oh how I miss you”
Slow steps to the front gate, he stands there a while
Watching the streets, the cars going by
All these people, with somewhere to go
All these people, and none that he knows
Sun sets its time to turn in, he turns on his beside lamp
Closes his eye, he lets out a sigh
With his hand on the pillow where her white hair would flow
and his body holds a shape like he was holding her close

for you are my husband and I am your wife
Oh Henry, if you ever feel alone
