Mary I surrender though no fortune has been made
I spent my days in the comfort of your arms
I never was a rich man, well at least that's what they say
but I had all I ever needed, when I had you in my gaze
And long is the road I'm traveling
And cold is the wind that's blowing
And when I'm gone, will you come to my stone?
Yeah, When I'm gone.... will you come?
Mary please come closer, woman, do not be afraid
I've something to tell you, before it slips away
I buried you a treasure on black mountain high
and you will find it, where the earth has kissed the sky
But long is the road to heaven
And cold are the stars that twinkle
And when I'm gone, will you come to my stone?
Yeah, When I'm gone.... will you come?
All of the friends I made
none compared with you
All of the plans we had
well, I hope you'll see them through
Mary please take my hand
because you're fading from my view
and I don't want to leave you
but there's nothing I can do
Mary I am sorry but the shadows finally won
and I am leaving, but I'll write you one more song
Mary stop your praying for the darkness has arrived
and I am fading, from your soft familiar light
And dark is the road to nowhere
And soft is the light in your hair
And when I'm gone, will you come to my stone?
Yeah, When I'm gone.... will you come?
A true hidden treasure of a song writer. This gent has been capturing songs in demo form on old tape recorders since the 80s. . . and he's still capturing his magic sounds in his secret basement. Damien Youth
