Lyrics
I hear the sound
Of distant drums
Far away
Far away
And if they call
For me to come
Then I must go
And you must stay
So Mary, marry me
Let's not wait
Let's share all the time we can
Before it's too late
And love me now
For now is all the time there may be
And if you love me, Mary
Mary, marry me
I hear the sound
If bugles blow
Far away
Far away
And if they call
Then I must go
Who knows where
Or who can say?
So Mary, marry me
Let's not wait
For those distant drums
Might change our wedding day
And love me now
For now is all the time there may be
And if you love me, Mary
Mary, marry me
Yes, if you love me, Mary
Mary, marry me
