Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I take a trip every evening
Strolling down memory lane
I'm walking again those familiar paths
Dreaming those dreams again

And I can always see my sweetheart
Just as she used to be
Waiting for someone at the garden gate
And I know that someone is me

Big brown eyes and pearly hair
And you'd tell that's Mary
Rosy cheeks and ruby lips
Can't you tell that's Mary

[Chorus][x2]
Ofttimes in the evenings we'd go strolling
Hand in hand together beneath the pepper tree
And I can feel her hand in mine as I sit alone tonight
Dreaming of the times I spent with Mary

[Outro]
Oh gee, wouldn't it be wonderful
To open up the doors of the past
And live again as yesterday
But you know no matter where I wander
No matter where I roam
There'll always be a place in my heart, boys
For a girl way back, for a girl that I used to call Mary
