After all the Jacks are in their boxes 
And the clowns have all gone to bed 
You can hear happiness staggering on downstream 
Footprints dressed in red 
And the wind wind whispers 
Mary 

A broom is drearily sweeping 
Up the broken pieces of yesterday's life 
Somewhere a queen is weeping 
Somewhere a king has no wife 
And the wind it cries 
Mary 

The traffic lights say turn blue tomorrow 
And shine the emptiness down on my bed 
The tiny island sags downsteam 
'Cause the life that lived there is dead 
And the wind wind screams 
Mary 

Will the wind ever remember 
The names it has blown in the past 
And with it's crutch, it's old age and it's wisdom 
But Jimi whispers: "No this will be the last!" 
And the wind wind cries 
Mary
