verse 1 oh mary lou the flowers all in bloom oh and the light on the petals from the moon oh the yellows and the blues you were beautiful and i was there with you remember in the silo where we kissed oh we were locked into love at the wrists oh it was bliss oh and i was there with you i m on my way so don t you fray i m at the fence pliers and a wrench oh listen close you can hear my footprints oh it was a cinch now the lock s on the ground and soon i ll be there with you tick tock creeping through the lot oh till the groundskeeper tells me stop but no i will not he doesn t know what i m prepared to do verse 2 baby doll listen to my call oh we re not so distant after all oh you slipped but didn t fall no cause i was there for you on that trail hiking in the gale oh we got caught in the lightning and the hail oh it was so frightening what a tale oh how happy a pair we two i m on my way so don t you fray he didn t fight it wasn t very hard that little old man there alone and in the dark he never stood a chance you shouldn t be alarmed no he tried to keep me away from you but now i m here right above your head oh like the chandelier light above your bed oh with a shovel i just swiped me from the shed oh chorus now here i come down down down baby i m coming down down down hey and i brought me a brand new shovel i m digging down down down chorus 2 well then i guess i m going down down down down down down well then i guess i m going down down down down down down baby im almost there im coming down down down down down down down down down down down down
