Life is not easy for Sister Marie
She finds that a thought is in error
A captive face haunting the mirror
Discomforts her
She listens intently to follow her dream
As it tells of her faith is a blessing
And she worries that he might be dancing
His irony
(Chorus)
It would be nice just to live like a lady
And to have someone to marry
It would be nice to have someone to care for
Someone to care when I'm weary
Carefully presenting the resemblance of peace
She fulfills her merriest duty
Until all the changes she goes through
Have beaten her
She write to her sister, it's snowing in the east
Doing quite how she is progressing
And startles herself by confessing
Her jealously
(Chorus)
It would be nice just to live like a lady
And to have someone to marry
It would be nice to have someone to care for
Someone to care when I'm weary
Life is not easy for Sister Marie
She finds that a thought is in error
A captive face haunting the mirror
Discomforts her
(Chorus)
It would be nice just to live like a lady
And to have someone to marry
It would be nice to have someone to care for
Someone to care when I'm weary
(Chorus)
It would be nice just to live like a lady
And to have someone to marry
It would be nice to have someone to care for
Someone to care when I'm weary
