The song tells the story of two women, referred to as "scarlet women" and "Black Madonna", who are being hunted down. A man tells one of the women to stop hiding her face and that she is safe in his sight. The women sing about finding safety from their pursuers, possibly in a place called "Les Saint Marie de la Mer". They pray to St. Jermaine for protection and call themselves "Marys of the Sea".

Hey no need to push me again I know it's your day in the sun Last time I checked he came to light the lamp for everyone "Relax love" he said before he left "Take those hands away from your eyes From where I stand you're in my sky" You must go must flee For they will hunt you down You and your unborn seed In all of Gaul is there safety? Les Saint Marie de la Mer You will dance the ring Marys of the Sea The lost bride weeps Les Saint Marie de la Mer We will dance your ring Hey there's a new Jerusalem Hey you built on rock that's on sand For now you have hijacked the son Last time I checked he came to light the lamp for everyone I hear a voice and it says "The red of the red rose is its own And something no man can divide" So St. Jermaine hear the prayer of this supplicant For two scarlet women, Black Madonna Hey I am not in your way Hey no need to push me again I know it's your day in the sun I know it's your day in the sun Hey I am not in your way Hey no need to push me again I know it's your day in the sun Last time I checked he came to light the lamp for everyone
