The Girl in Marseille

The Girl In Marseille

She was just a girl in the market in Marseille
Selling a flower to everyone passing her way
I was just a boy on a summer holiday
I didn't notice her there not until my last day
I said bonjour and she said messieur
Would you like me to show you around

We shared all that day how she laughed at my francaise
Dancing and singing out loud on the streets of Marseille
Time just slipped away and she knew I couldn't stay
I saw a tear but au revoir was all we could say
I stole a kiss and we both made a wish
That one day maybe I could return

Seems so long ago is it two years maybe three
But I think of her and I hope that she think's about me
I still sing her song such a lovely melody
That shimmers and sways till each note is a sweet memory
