This is another song from the 'Plaine Jane' Cd. It has a really calming feel to it. Nice harmony line too.

Story behind the song
This song is personal in nature, as most songs are. If you were on the inside, you might understand, or if somthing like it has happened to you, you will know what I am talking about here. Family turmoil. That's about all I can say.
Lyrics
Not Mary Your son went away on a warm July day and now it's mid December. You missed him so much, you used me as a crutch, that's ok, 'cause I won't remember. You've been writing letters full of prayers for so long, but your boy, he doesn't respond. So wait for the day when he calls you to say, Mother, I was so wrong. My name is not Mary, these days I'm not very happy, so what did I do? I wrote to my brother told him to write mother, and then I wrote them this clue. And now that I'm singing, some ears should be ringing, full of all of the truth. My name is not Mary, it's gotten all scary- I didn't know how else to tell you. I may go away some warm July day- but don't worry about us, I'll remember. I'll be ok, you can bet you will say I wish she wouldn't send so many letters. It won't be for awhile, can I still cramp your style? Tell you jokes like I was a child.. and for every day that your Rob is away, I'll try to make you smile. I know that it's hard because he lives so far and he was your first baby! But please realize he's not an only child and that my name is not Mary. You've been writing letters full of prayers for so long, but your boy, he doesn't respond. So wait for the day when he calls you to say, Father, I was so wrong. Your son went away on a warm July day, and now it's mid December. You missed him so much you used me as a crutch- that's ok, I never remember. I know that it's hard because he lives so far, and he was your first baby, I know you realize he's not an only child and that my name is not Mary. -End-
