We only knew each other by letter I went to meet her off the train When the smoke had cleared and the dust was still
She was standing there and speaking my name I guarantee she looked like an angel I couldn't think of what I should say But when Adam saw Eve in the garden I believe he felt the selfsame way
I handed her up on the wagon And I loaded up her trunk behind She was sitting up there with the gold in her hair And I tried to get a hold of my mind
Do you think that you could love me Mary Do you think we got a chance of a life Do you think that you could love me Mary Now you are to be my wife
We finally headed out of the station And we drove up the home trail And when we came to the farm she laid a hand on my arm I thought my resolution would fail And I froze as she stepped in the doorway Stood there as still as could be I said I know it ain't much, it needs a woman's touch Lord she turned around and looked at me
Do you think that you could love me Mary You think we got a chance of a life Do you think that you could love me Mary Now you are to be my wife
We had a prairie wedding There was a preacher and a neighbour or two I gave my golden thing a gold wedding ring And the both of us said I do And when the sun's going down on the prairie And the gold in her hair is aflame I say do you really love me Mary And I hold her and I whisper her name
Do you think that you could love me Mary You think we got a chance of a life Do you think that you could love me Mary Now you are to be my wife
