Lyrics:

Oh, the cold wet wind blew over the heather
You wrote 'Charlie and Mary for forever'
On the back of a rock
That you picked up on the way

And in that perfect moment
I nearly ruined it
By saying, 'I love you' and nearly meaning it
But you know I would never waste those words

Oh, when I last saw Mary
She lied and said it was her birthday
Oh, when I last saw Mary
She lied and said it was her birthday

But then she tried to kiss me
And I said, 'Don't bother.
You know we don't really love one another.
And there's no use in burning out this flame.'

Oh, but then things changed
In a way I couldn't predict
She said, 'I love you.' and it suddenly clicked
That she was only saying what she wanted me to hear

And I said, 'Please don't lie to me, Mary.'
And I said, 'Please don't lie to me, Mary.'

I said, 'Please don't lie.
Oh. it makes me cry in bed'
I said, 'Please don't lie.
Oh. it makes me cry in bed'
I said, 'Please don't lie.
Oh. it makes me cry in bed'

And she said, 'Shut your mouth.
You don't know what you're talking about.'
Oh she said, 'Shut your mouth.
You don't know what you're talking about.'
