I used to know this girl Marie |
|
and so the story goes, she never really talked to me |
|
Her house was seven blocks away |
|
On my way to school I went to see if she's okay |
|
Tell me, where have you gone |
|
Where have you gone, Marie |
|
Why did you leave |
|
Come back to me, Cherie |
|
I know you went away |
|
You went away, Marie |
|
You could not stay |
|
You could not stay, Cherie |
|
Please stay with me, Marie Cherie |
|
Here in me |
|
Oh no, I did not treat you right |
|
You're in the senses lost, you never had the chance to fly |
|
She looked so pretty, like a dream |
|
Her skin's like velvet cream, she never made a sweet sixteen |
|
Nobody came around to see her |
|
It was as if she was not there |
|
A lone butterfly that's caught in the amber |
|
Always your daddy's little girl |
|
Tell me, where have you gone |
|
Where have you gone, Marie |
|
Why did you leave |
|
Come back to me, Cherie |
|
I know you went away |
|
You went away, Marie |
|
You could not stay |
|
You could not stay, Cherie |
|
Please stay with me, Marie Cherie |
|
Here in me |
|
I know you went away |
|
You went away, Marie |
|
You could not stay |
|
You could not stay, Cherie |
|
Tell me, where have you gone |
|
Where have you gone, Marie |
|
Why did you leave |
|
Come back to me, Cherie |
|
I know you went away |
|
You went away, Marie |
|
You could not stay |
|
You could not stay, Cherie |
|
Please stay with me, Marie Cherie |
|
Here in me |
