Danny is lonely 'cause Mary's in India now
She said she'd call but that was three weeks ago
She left all her things, well, her books and her letters from him
But as the sun rises on Mary, it sets on him
And just dance, and just drink
And just say the things I'll probably never get a chance to say
Danny is not eating, he's drinking and sleeping in
I saw him last night at the party, he's definitely thin
He says he's happy, he looked pretty good but I think
That as the sun rises on Mary, it sets on him
And just dance, and just drink
And just say the things I'll probably never get a chance to say
Danny came over last night and I cooked for him
He talked about you, Mary, and how much we loved you still
He told me he's packed up you books, and your letters and things
As the sun sets on Mary, it's rising on him
And we danced, and we drank
And I've seen somethings you probably never got a chance to see
Don't worry Mary, 'cause I'm taking care of Danny
And he's taking care of me
