The Temptations
Mary Ann
[Verse 1 - Dennis Edwards]
I'm on a big ship
On the high waves (?) of time
I've followed every dream in life
That ever crossed my mind
Beyond each horizon
I find less that I left behind

[Pre Chorus]
Oh, how I miss you, Mary Ann
I'd love to taste your love again
My sail's awaiting for the wind

[Chorus]
Mary Ann!
Mary Ann!
Mary! Ann!

{Verse 2]
Out in the sea of doubt
I weathered every storm
I'm the captain of my ship
A sailor, I was born
I've had queens in castles
On clouds in the sky
[Pre Chorus]
But my heart sent to you, Mary Ann
My mind's on coming home again
My sail's awaiting for the wind

[Chorus]
Mary Ann!
Mary Ann!
Mary! Ann!

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
I'd like to imagine you on the shores at dawn
And you, oh my pretty one, gentle as a fawn
And as I row my boat ashore
My dream is that we go home baby

[Pre Chorus]
Oh how I miss you Mary Ann
I'd love to be back home again
My sail's awaiting for the wind

[Chorus]
Mary Ann!
Mary Ann!
Mary! Ann!
[Instrumental Outro]
