	Story Behind the Song You can think of each song as its own country, a self-contained place full of entreaty and enthusiasm where people aren't afraid to do things differently. Lyrics SWEET SISTER MARY Sweet sister Mary, what is this I hear I near than you're planning on leaving from here And I fear that it's true there's a great empty space Faces are crying all over the place Stay Mary stay The tears and the rain and the dew occupy The valley sweet Mary where you say good-bye Now while under the rain I was bit by a fish Mary you plan to allow me one wish How pleasant the banks and green valley's where wild in the woodland the primroses blow often as mild evening weeps over the lea and the sweet scented birk shades my Mary and me. Stay Mary stay The sun never shines o're this valley the mountains are crying all day The trees never change from the autumn Since Mary said Mary can't stay Away, away, away Sweet sister Mary, the church closed its doors The men's room is sweeping the tears from the floors And I know you'll be missed, but I think we'll survive Mary Sweet Mary, may tray good bye Bye Mary Bye from the poetry of Robert Burns
