Mary
Pale Sunday Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And a big box of candies
Johnny said that it's your birthday
And showed me your favorite song
we can dance make the world spin
Fall down and laughâ?¦na na na
And I like all the songs you hate
But tonight I promise it will be perfect
Look, I'm wearing a pastels badge
You can make all my little world spin
I wish to make the same with yours na na na
Mary isn't it perfect?
Under the moonlight a velvet kiss
Don't be shy, just close your eyes
There's too much love in your lips
You can make all my little world spin
How I wish to make the same with yours na na na
The song "Mary" by Pale Sunday is a sweet and simple love song about a man expressing his affection for Mary on her birthday. The lyrics describe how he brings her daisies and a big box of candies to celebrate her special day, and how his friend Johnny showed him Mary's favorite song. The singer promises to make the night perfect, despite not being very romantic and liking all the songs Mary hates. He even wears a pastel badge, possibly as a nod to Mary's style preferences.
The chorus of the song conveys a sense of joy and playfulness, with the singer inviting Mary to dance and fall down laughing. The repetition of the "na na na" phrase in between the lines adds to the whimsical and carefree tone of the song. In the second verse, the singer asks Mary if everything is perfect under the moonlight, and references a "velvet kiss" - perhaps indicating a tender and romantic moment. He urges Mary to close her eyes and let the love between them be expressed through their lips.
Overall, "Mary" is a simple but heartfelt tribute to the joy of being in love and sharing special moments with the person you care about. The playful imagery and sweet, romantic gestures make it a charming and endearing song.
