Scott Gorham - Sweet Marie lyrics

My sweet Marie You mean a lot to me In my memory Oh I hold you 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 With twilight's falling The full moon is calling (Sweet Marie) And what the sea tells Only sea shells are whispering (Sweet Marie) Into the darkness there goes this message To you, my darling (Sweet Marie) 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 (Sweet Marie) (Sweet Marie) (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 To keep me thinking on Sweet Marie She means a lot to me (Sweet Marie) Oh this melody It keeps on haunting me (Sweet Marie) In harmony It's with me constantly (Sweet Marie) But my home is where my heart is But my heart it's not at home You see now that we are parted Oh I feel so all alone
