mary lou

sonata arctica’nın hem akustik hemde "power" versiyonu bulunan parçası. dinlenesidir sözleri de şöyledir;

mamas put your babies to sleep, story too cruelsome for
them this is. in junior high she said goodbye to her parents and ran
away with a boy. she left her family warm and kind, all of her friends said
"you´re out of your mind". life of her own she would find,
it´s monday and she´s gotta grind.

a job as a waitress she sure was to find, beautiful face,
mind of a child. boy got her pregnant, mary-lou cried," for this i am
too young oh why did you lie" you said "it´s okay if we do it today", i was
so scared that you would go away. "despite all the papers been signed,
mama take me back be so kind".

only a child, reckless and wild, needs to come
home again. he promised the moon but won´t marry you.
nothing to do, eating for two, he´s goin´ out with
someone new. sunshine or rain, it´s all the same, life isn´t gray
oh mary-lou.

mamas do your children still sleep, in the safe of their
cradles so sweet. story i told you i have forseen, your little angel ain´t
always so clean. days to come aren´t easy to see, you can change ´em but
it isn´t free. i see that you don´t believe, ooo-oo, but you will see.
