Mary weeped over me
Mary weeped over me
Turned on dime
Suddenly
When you reach
For the higher rock
Then you reach for me

Shackle and chain
Can't settle me
Shackle and chain
Can't settle me
Been strung up
On a dogwood tree
When you reach
For the higher rock
Then you reach for me

Gilded cage
Is a treachery
Gilded cage
Is a treachery
Heart of gold
That holds the key
When you reach
For the higher rock
Then you reach for me
