Lyrics for Sweet Marie
My sweet Marie you mean a lot to me In my memory I hold you very dearly Once in all my dreams, my plans, hopes and future schemes There was sweet Marie But my home is where my heart is And my heart is not at home You see whenever we are parted Oh, I feel so all alone Twilight's falling The full moon is calling sweet Marie What the sea tells only sea shells Are whispering sweet Marie Into the darkness goes this message sweet Marie Some lovers they are parted They must end what they have started All that's left is the broken hearted, I must depart my sweet Marie Somewhere out in Arizona Such a long way from California Oh I felt so alone there I was two thousand miles away from home there Tonight we're going to play Boston And I still don't know what the hell is going on Oh but I just wrote this song And it keeps me thinking on Sweet Marie she means a lot to me Oh this melody it keeps on haunting me In harmony, it's will me constantly, sweet Marie But my home is where my heart is And my heart it's not at home You see, now that we are parted Oh I feel so all alone
