I've burned my eyes on the summertime skies
Just a-travelin' a country mile
I've drowned in pain in the winter rain
And the sweetness of a smile
I've been possessed or maybe even blessed
By the dreams that I can't define
Don't you see there's a light in me
And I got to make it shine?
Oh, sweet Mary, Mary, don't you know?
May have come a long way, but I've got a long way to go
Been through fire and I've been down the wire
Just a-lookin' for my name
I've soared as high as the wild birds fly
But I still came down the same
Now I may feel just a little more real
But I'm still more lost than found
And when day is done, babe, I need someone
Just to wrap my love around
Oh, sweet Lucy, Lucy, don't you know?
May have come a long way, but I've got a long way to go
Oh, sweet Jenny, Jenny, don't you know?
May have come a long way, but I've got a long way to go
May have come a long way
But I've got a long way to go
