Marie, the dawn is breaking
Marie, we'll soon be waiting
To find your heart is aching
And tears will fall as you recall
The moon in all its splendor
Your kiss so very tender
Marie, the dawn is breaking, marie,
We'll soon be waking to find
Your heart is aching
And tears will fall as you recall
The moon in all it's splendor
A kiss so very tender,
A words, will you surrender to me.
Marie, she comes to me in the twilightWhen the wind blows down across the riverSo cold, the fishermen cryShe rapes me in a rage of rainbow violenceTill my bare nerves, they singLike the strings of a violinAnd the room seeps into a savage silenceSoaked in colours, red as blood, blue as nightAnd marie she skins me aliveCarves her initials in my sideLures me with her purrs and cuts me with her knifeAnd the horses pound like thunderThey bolt like lightning on her rangeShe feels she’s going under and she zeros in the reinShe’s so strangeWell, marie, you know, she’s the queen of all the stallionsAnd I’m her prince of mulesAnd one of her principal foolsMarie, she’s got the claws of a falconAnd she’s perched on my shoulder, and slowly digging inBut she, oh she can be so strange sometimesLike at night ...Or when the neighbors come to dineMarie, she skins me aliveBurns her initials in my hide and then leaves me all aloneBranded to the boneAnd my heart pounds like her horsesOh, stampeding on the rangeMarie knows all the sourcesAnd she shoots me with her painAnd for her, I take it, lord, down in my veinsAnd I watch her dance like some berserk fairyAll across the concrete prairies of bleecker streetMarie, she can be so strangebut she’s the only lonely cowgirl on my range
Marie the dawn is breaking Marie you'll soon be waking
To find your heart is aching and tears will fall as you recall
The night in all its splendor a kiss kiss kiss so very tender
The words won't you surrender to me hey Marie

Marie-e you a fi me-e
Me nuh care who disagree
You looked like a princess the night we met
With your hair piled up high
I will never forget
I'm drunk right now baby
But I've got to be
Or I never could tell you
What you meant to me
I loved you the first time I saw you
And I always will love you Marie
I loved you the first time I saw you
I stood in line and left my name
Took about six hours or so
Well, the man just grinned like it was all a game
Said they'd let me know
I put in my time till the Pocono line
Shut down two years ago
I was staying at the mission till I met Marie
Now I can't stay there no more
Fella 'cross town said he's lookin' for a man
To move some old cars around
Maybe me and Marie could find a burned-out
Van and do a little settlin' down
But I'm just dreamin', I ain't got no ride
And the junkyard's a pretty good ways
That job's about a half week old besides
It'd be gone now anyway
Unemployment said I got no more checks
And they showed me to the hall
My brother died in Georgia some time ago
I got no one left to call
Summer wasn't bad below the bridge
A little short on food that's all
Now I gotta get Marie some kind of coat
We're headed down into fall
I used to play the mouth harp pretty good
Hustled up a little dough
But I got drunk and I woke up rolled
A couple of months ago
They got my harp and they got my dollar
Them low life so and so's
Harps cost money and I ain't got it
It's my own fault, I suppose
The Pocono's down but the Chesapeak's runnin'
Two freights everyday
If it was just me, I'd be headed south
But Marie can't catch no train
She's got some pain and she thinks it's a baby
Says we gotta wait and see
In my heart I know it's a little boy
Hope he don't end up like me
Well, the man's still grinnin' says he lost my file
I gotta stand in line again
I want to kill him but I just say no
I had enough of that line my friend
I head back to the bridge, its getting kinda cold
I'm feelin' too low down to lie
I guess I'll just tell Marie the truth
Hope she don't break down and cry
Marie she didn't wake up this morning
She didn't even try
She just rolled over and went to Heaven
My little boy safe inside
I laid them in the sun where somebody'd find them
Caught a Chesapeak on the fly
Marie will know I'm headed south
So's to meet me by and by
Marie will know I'm headed south
You looked like a princess
The night we met
With your hair piled up high
I will never forget
I'm drunk right now baby
But I've got to be
I never could tell you
What you mean to me
I loved you the first time I saw you
And I always will love you Marie
I loved you the first time I saw you
And I always will love you Marie
The song that the trees sing
When the wind blows
You're a flower, you're a river
You're a rainbow
Sometimes I'm crazy
But I guess you know
I'm weak and I'm lazy
And I hurt you so
I don't listen
To a word you say
And when you're in trouble
I turn away
But I love you
I loved you the first time I saw you
And I always will love you Marie
I loved you the first time I saw you
I stood in line and left my name
Took about six hours or so
Well, the man just grinned like it was all a game
Said they'd let me know
I put in my time till the Pocono line

So's to meet me by and by
Marie will know I'm headed south
You brought me happiness
When I had none
Made me believe that I
Could be someone
Just like the sun you always shine for me
What am I gonna do
Now that I don't have you Marie
You over looked the fuss that others saw
You said they only made
You love me more
Some said it proved how blind
True love can be
What am I gonna do
Now that I don't have you
Marie
A traveler with no star
To guide me
A love song in search of a key
A prisoner of love
Locked inside me
Beggin to be free
Oh I lost it all
When I lost you
Marie
You where the sparkle
In this old fools eyes
And now my heart begins
To realize
Your love will turn into a memory
Where am I gonna go
After loving you so
Marie
What am I gonna do
Now that I don't have you
We're waiting for the sunrise
Marie
Marie.
We're standing in the moon's eyes
Marie
Marie.
And when I tell you that I'll always be around
I'll be around
And when I tell you that it's true love that we've found
It's what we've found
The bad times and the good
Worries and the fights
A man needs a lover that can see him through the night.
We're waiting for the sunrise
Marie
And me.
We're standing in the moon's eyes
Right or wrong
Weak or strong.
And when I tell you that I'll always be around
I'll be around
And when I tell you that it's true love that we've found
That's what we've found
The bad times and the good
Worries and the fights
A man needs a lover that can see him through the night.
We're waiting for the sunrise
Marie
And me.
We're standing in the moon's eyes
Right or wrong
Weak or strong
Yeah
Marie
And me.
Right or wrong
Weak or strong
Marie.

By:Schamaine Armstrong
There's Marie
There she goes
She was my girlfriend
But now she's in love with someone els
I don't know what went wrong
We were so in love or so I taught
And now she's going away
With my best friend
And I don't know when this is going to end
[CHORUS]
Marie please don't go
I'm not gonna stand this Marie
I just can't stand this Marie
Ho Marie baby I trusted you
And baby I believe you
When you said that you would never leave
Marie how could you treat me this way
When you said I was the one for you
Marie how could you treat me this way
When you know that my love is true
[CHORUS]
Marie please don't go
I'm not gonna stand this Marie
I just can't stand this Marie
I didn't know all of this was going down
I guess I was away for too long
I didn't know that you were cheating on me
Marie how could you treat me this way
Whe you know that I'm in love with you
Marie how could you treat me this way
After everything that we've been through
[CHORUS]
Marie please don't go
I'm not gonna stand this Marie
I just can't stand this Marie
Marie please don't go
I'm not gonna stand this Marie
(I'm not gonna)
I just can't stand this Marie
(Said I'm not gonna)
I just can't stand this Marie
(Girl I'm not gonna)
I'm not gonna stand this Marie
(No I'm not gonna)
I'm not going to stand this Marie
(Girl I'm not gonna)
Marie, you got me thinkin'
Long term and being careful with my drinkin'
And looking forward to my holidays and weekends
Marie, I love the way you got me thinkin'
But Marie, I'm always workin'
Long drives, bad food, stale air, and such boredom
When I get home, we'll take a trip of just sit and do nothing
Rent a movie or something
Whatever gets your blood pumpin'
My Marie
You're all the pretty music that I need
marie..
she takes me in and takes me out
she takes me in and takes me out
Hey there Mr. Postman do you have something for me?
I’ve been waiting way too long on a letter from Marie
Her eyes are filled with passion, my heart’s full of desire
Jut like the first time we made love beneath the stars in the sky
I’m fighting for our freedom, for the promise land
If I get back from Vietnam I’ll put a ring in her hand
I opened up the letter, I found a photograph
I pressed it to my lips hoping this won’t be my last
Her words are so neatly strung out along the page
And then they start to smear as the tears roll down her face
I wish I could explain but she just won’t understand
If I get back from Vietnam I’ll put a ring in her hand
Now the sky has turned to orange man their coming on real fast
You better grab your gun, we got Charlie on our ass
I hear the depths of hell at the bows of the scene
Remember me Marie
If you’re reading this letter, I’m sorry that I lied
You will always have my heart but you will never be my bride
If it was the same I would do it all again
Because the day I said I loved you that’s exactly what I meant
Now you have a flag for which my life stands
I’m sorry that I never put a ring in your hand
Marie, Marie, Marie
Marie, the dawn is breaking
Marie, (ooh, Marie) you'll soon be waking
To find you heart is aching
And tears (and tears) will fall (will fall) as you recall
The moon in all its splendor
A kiss (ooh, a kiss) so very tender
The words, "Will you surrender
To me, (Marie), Marie, (Marie-ee)?"
Marie, you'll soon be waking
To find you heart is aching
And tears (and tears) will fall (will fall) as you recall
The moon in all its splendor
A kiss (ooh, a kiss) so very tender
The words, "Will you surrender
I was just thinking of you
Wonder if what I heard was true
Ya got a kid and another on the way
That must be the reason that I don't see ya much these days
Now I know how far away you are from me
Just a shimmer in a distance galaxy
Now I know that we can never just be friends
And I guess I'll never see you again
Marie Marie oh Marie
Why didn't I ask you to marry me
Marie Marie Oh Marie
I kick myself for never asking you to marry me
Marie
Oh Marie!
I was just thinking of you
Ten years of thinking it through oh.
Ya got a kid and you're living far away
That must be the reason that I don't see ya much these days
Now I know how far away you are from me
Just a shimmer in a distance galaxy
Now I know that we can never just be friends
And I guess I'll never see you again
Marie Marie oh Marie
Why didn't I ask you to marry me
Marie Marie Oh Marie
I kick myself for never asking you to marry me
Marie
(Hahaha los geht's)
Ich gab dir meine Liebe
Ich gab dir mein Geld
Und wo bist du jetzt Marie
Ich gab dir die Schlüssel zu meiner riesen Welt
Und wo bist du jetzt Marie
Ganz egal wo du dich rumtreibst
Ich hoffe es geht dir schlecht
Schlampe Drecksau ich hoffe es geht dir schlecht
Schlampe Drecksau ich hoffe es geht dir schlecht
Und dann kommst du angekrochen
Doch ich kenne dich nicht mehr
Was hältst du davon Marie
Mein Herz hast du mir gebrochen
Meine Welt war schrecklich leer
Doch jetzt geht's mir besser ohne dich Marie
Ganz egal wo du dich rumtreibst
Ich hoffe es geht dir schlecht
Schlampe Drecksau ich hoffe es geht dir schlecht
Schlampe Drecksau ich hoffe es geht dir schlecht
Nie wieder werde ich dein Macker sein
(Nie wieder nie wieder nie wieder)
Lieber bleibe ich für immer allein
Und wo bist du jetzt Marie
Und wo bist du jetzt Marie
Und wo bist du jetzt Marie
Und wo bist du jetzt Marie
Ganz egal wo du dich rumtreibst
Ich hoffe es geht dir schlecht
Schlampe Drecksau ich hoffe es geht dir schlecht
Schlampe Drecksau ich hoffe es geht dir schlecht

I loved a girl, her name was Marie
But the hand of God took her from me
Down by the river in her favorite dress
Down by the river I laid her to rest
Marie , Marie the wind calls her name
What I wouldn't give to hold her again
In the little old shack that once was our home
In the little old shack where I wait alone
The days pass by so empty and slow
I try but I can't let her go
Down to the river with a rope in my hand
Down to the river where the cottonwood stands
Way up high I tie the knot to the bough
Dear God, my God, take me to her now
I hob koan riesigen Schlitten
kann dir net viel bieten

Oh Marie ist aller Zauber der Welt

Marie, the dawn is breaking,
Marie, you'll soon be waking
to find your heart is breaking
and tears will fall, as you recall
the moon in all its splendor,
the kiss, so very tender,
the words, "Will you surrender
to me, Marie?"
The moon in all its splendor,
the kiss, so very tender,
the words, "Will you surrender
Laying awake tonight
With silence next to me
A matches glowing light
Throwing a shadow I see
Less than a second a noise
And I know she's here
I know I'll let her in
'Cause Marie said so...
REFRAIN:
Marie
She's coming back
She is the one I can't forget
Marie
I can't deny
And even though it hurts inside
This time I'll tell her to go
Oh no, I wouldn't dare
It's hard to be alone
But even harder with her
I'm feeling torn between
Waiting behind the door
I know I let her in
'Cause Marie said so...
REFRAIN
A whisper touches my ear
I feel my mouth is dry
The answer in my head
Turns now into a lie
So it's all clear in my mind
And like the night before
I know I let her in
'Cause Marie said so...
So wie ein Traum
Ich glaub es kaum
Doch ist es wahr
Wir zwei
Wir sind ab heut ein Paar.
Wie gut das ist
Wenn du mich küßt
Wenn du mich liebst
Ich bin so froh
Daß es dich gibt.
Marie
Heut feiern du und ich ein Freudenfest
Marie
Weil sich's mit dir so herrlich feiern läßt
Marie Marie
Wir beide sind ein ganz besond'rer Fall
Für uns
Ist jeden Abend Karneval ...
So viel Glück für mich
Gibt's nur durch dich
Nur Sonnenschein
Die ganze Welt lad ich heut ein.
Bitte bleib so nah
So wunderbar
Ein jeder Kuß
Der ist für mich ein Hochgenuß.
Marie
Heut feiern du und ich ein Freudenfest
Marie
Weil sich's mit dir so herrlich feiern läßt

I loved a girl, her name was Marie

Down to the river with a rope in my hand

Way up high I tie the knot to the bough
Hey that's enough to swallow at one time
Girl you better let yourself slow down
He's just keeps talking trash to feed your helpless
insecurities
He'll promise what you want and it's everything you'll
never need
Marie is upset
Marie, the crush is all inside her head
Marie is upset
Marie she's not old enough to worry yet
Girl, there's a little bit of sugar in your eyes
And you're too blind to see what's on the other side
You're just another star on a list of instant casualties
You don't know you are when you're walking on your knees
Marie is upset
Marie, the crush is all inside her head
Marie is upset
Marie she's not old enough to worry yet
There's a million signs that point to your submission
They say we ran our course
But i feel like a racing horse
Got a Feeling i will running all my life
Oh, all i'm asking you Marie
is spend one more fare on me
Give me one more night
I thought i was smart enough
I read Moby Dick and stuff
I guess i ain't smart enough for you
oh, all i'm asking you Marie
is spend one more fare on me
give me one more night
You say you don't wanna dance
till i wash my hands
but my hands aren't as dirty as my mind
oh, all i'm asking you Marie
is spend one more fare on me
give me one more night
They say this song's in "G"
but i don't give a shit
i wrote this song in the key of love
oh, all i'm asking you Marie
is spend one more fare on me
Seventeen nights away
She's leaving
Cause everything she found was fake
Oh tell me why
I don't know why
Why does she have to leave
No one has told me
She's ended up there
All I can do is to keep being here
Marie my friend
Marie my friend
I sing for you
Marie my friend
Marie my friend
This is your song
Seventeen skies away
She's falling
Cause everything she had has gone
Oh tell me why
I don't know why
Why does she have to leave
No one has told me
She's ended up there
All I can do is to keep being here
Marie my friend
Marie my friend
I sing for you
Marie my friend
Marie my friend
This is your song
Couldn't take your hand
I should've done this before
I'm so stuck now
You changed my world
Don't go away like this
Oh tell me why
I don't know why
Why you have been so strong
No one has held you
But you spread your wings
All I can do is to keep being here
Marie my friend
Marie my friend
I sing for you
Marie my friend
Marie my friend
Marie
Was soll ich tun ohne Marie
Mein Leben ist leer ohne Marie
Wenn sie nicht da wär
Dann weiß ich
Ich müßte sie finden
Marie
Ich brauche ihr Lachen
Oh Marie
Ich brauche ihr Weinen
Oh Marie
Dein Name macht alles so schön
Wie niemals zuvor.
Oh Marie ist aller Zauber der Welt
Und ich geh für sie durch Feuer und Schnee
Und ich heb' ihr den See aus den Ufern
Wenn sie bei mir bleibt für immer.
Marie
Du machst mich so traurig
Oh Marie
Du machst mich so glücklich
Oh Marie
Du weißt es: ich liebe dich
Und ich ruf deinen Namen:
Oh Marie ist aller Zauber der Welt
Und ich hole sie für immer zu mir
Und ich gebe ihr mein ganzes Leben
Wenn sie bei mir bleibt für immer.
Marie
Was soll ich tun ohne Marie
Ich kann nicht ohne sie sein
