VERSE(1): She looked good in my eyes And in everyone else¹s too She had it all together At least from other¹s point of view Always the one to be with And Mary was her name I didn¹t know her too well But enough to never be the same She knew the things to say She knew the things to do She knew the people to know But Lord she never knew You What Mary didn¹t know was the answer I was holdin¹ I didn¹t think she¹d change so I never even tried How was I to know? I wish I would¹ve told her Now I¹ll have to live and die with what Mary didn¹t know VERSE(2): She was a seeker, lookin¹ to find Some kind of somethin¹ And I remember the time When we were talkin¹ Opportunity for me was prime But I missed, now I look back in my mind Right on the tip of my tongue was, ³Jesus died for you² The words stayed right there I never got through CHORUS VERSE(3): The day came for Mary to stand before the throne And as she saw the tears in her Father¹s eyes She cried,²I wish I would¹ve known.² I knew things to say, I knew the things to do I knew the people to know, but God I never knew You. Someday I'll answer for. . . CHORUS
