Lyrics
I got to my sister's house
Let myself right in
Headed to her backyard porch
Stripped down to my skin
Looking up at the blue, blue sky
Guess I'll have a drink
There's no one here
To stop me now
So I'll just sit and think about
The only friend I ever had
Oh, I raise my glass to that
Oh Marie
Why can't you see?
There's nobody
Waiting for me
Even in the dark, you will surpass your lovers
Nothing left to do but smiling in your shadow
Oh Marie, it's good to see you smile like that
How could the world ever forget its biggest thief
Would always have you steal from me
I sit in the window frame
Legs over the sill
Childhood's gone and still I feel
Greener than the hill
What would I give to get you back
I miss you like a dream
You were the captain of my team
My favourite dress torn to its seam
Oh Marie
Why can't you see?
There's nobody
Waiting for me
Even in the dark, you will surpass your lovers
Nothing left to do but smiling in your shadow
Oh Marie, it's good to see you smile like that
And when the clouds are above your head
You keep hoping they will pass, and they will pass
Even in the dark, you will surpass your lovers
Nothing left to do but smiling in your shadow
Oh Marie, your heart breaks about the same
And it's been crushing me to claim you as my own
If you want I'll let you go
If you want I'll let you go
