Bow To The Sad Lady de Ryan Adams

Oh, just wait and you will see, won't you, mara lise?

Through the curtains, sees the town and the parades
Oh, you know how innocence fades, don't you, mara lise?

Marching softly through the weeds in her front yard
Up onto the porch to a sip of tea
Wounded soldier with a cane and a bitter remedy
You'll repay every trick you pulled
On the boys that were lost out at sea
Oh they drowned in your memory, didn't they, mara lise?
You'll repay every senseless act
To the boys who were dead in the field
Oh you know they're were already killed, don't you, mara lise?

Through the curtains, sees the town and the parades
Oh, you know how innocence fades, don't you, mara lise?

Were you even capable of love?
If you were, then how do you know
Innocence keeps tabs on the ones it can't see
It wet it's lips, and it said "mara lise"

Marching softly through the weeds in her front yard
Up onto the porch to a sip of tea
Wounded woman with a cane and a bitter remedy
You'll repay every trick you pulled
To the boys that were lost out in the field
Oh you know they're were already killed, don't you, mara lise?
