Mary – Glen Hansard

Love is a language you can speak
So eloquently
And I’ve never heard such a melody
As when you address me, Mary

I’ve never felt so sweet a kiss
Put on so gently
As love bears fruit, it’s taken root
And is growing inside me, Mary

This work that we do is old and new
It comes so rarely
But when you’re around it comes falling down
Like confetti upon me, Mary

With your song
You made this wild willing
With your willing
You made this wild song
With your song
You crossed every border
That I have guarded so long

Love is a language you can speak
So eloquently
And I’ve never heard such a melody
As when you address me, Mary
