Come over to the window my little darling
I'd like to try to read your palm
I used to think I was some sort of before
I let you take me home
So long, Marianne.
It's time we began
to laugh, and cry, and cry,
and laugh about it all again
Well you know that I love to live with you
but you make me forget so very much
I forget to pray for the angels
and then the angels forget to pray for us
So long, Marianne.
It's time we began
to laugh, and cry, and cry,
and laugh about it all again
Oh, you're really such a pretty one
I see you've gone and changed your name again
And just when I climbed this whole mountainside
to wash my eyelids in the rain
So long, Marianne.
It's time we began
to laugh, and cry, and cry,
and laugh about it all again
So long, Marianne.
It's time we began.............fade
