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
