Sister Mary - Demis Roussos, Bonnie St.Claire

Sister Mary, can you tell me, is there any news?

Sister Mary, I’ve been praying, what else can I do?

She’s been gone, seems so long, I want to have her home

Sister Mary, reassure me, help me to go on

Tell me, don’t try to spare me pain

Will she be coming home again?

Sister, I feel so afraid

All my life I cared so much for her

All my life is nothing if I’m left without her

Tell me, why I just can’t let her go

Oh, how I love her, oh, how I miss her

Mister Thompson, now she’s sleeping, the doctor’s been today

There seems to be no change in her, that’s all he had to say

But late last night she spoke to me, she said she loves me so

Mister Thompson, don’t you worry, she’ll soon be well, I know

Tell me, don’t try to spare me pain

Will she be coming home again?

Sister, I feel so afraid

All my life I cared so much for her

All my life is nothing if I’m left without her

Tell me, why I just can’t let her go

Oh, how I love her, oh, how I miss her

Mister Thompson, I’m sorry

Please, don’t cry, don’t cry, please, don’t cry
