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. 

**Chorus**

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 letters and things. 
As the sun sets on Mary, its rising on him. 

**Chorus**

Don't worry Mary, 'cause I'm taking care of Danny, 
And he's taking care of me.
