Marie

My Marie, wasted so much time watching

Sat behind your image, I always wondered

Type me another picture, so I can look inside your head

Reach the final thread

 

When all the words are said and done

And times we have no longer fun

Please remember how it all began

Cause no one won, no one won

 

My Marie, did you really think I’d change

Become your love, rearrange my life to suit your soul

Could we really be such fools

Expect to change the rules forever

 

When all the words are said and done

And times we have no longer fun

Please remember how it all began

Cause no one won, no one won

 

My Marie, another picture in another place

Dirty talk, dirty sleaze

Lousy love that didn’t please

High-class bitch, fucking tease

 

When all the words are said and done

And times we have no longer fun

Please remember how it all began

Cause no one won, no one won

 

My Marie, dressed to thrill, stocking tops where guys would kill

Pink champagne upon your breasts

Trickling down your shaven nest

Sighs to screams, frenzied pace

Champagne and love, the sultry taste

 

When all the words are said and done

And times we have no longer fun

Please remember how it all began

Cause no one won, no one won

 

My Marie, we fight goodbye

Mocking insults, tears to cry

Words like daggers deep inside

Daggers deep inside

Goodbye, Marie, our time has come

The pictures running dry

Sat behind your image, I always wondered why

 

One day I was feeling all alone

Felt so really down

Remembered a pair of lacy pants

And put them to my brow

Champagne and scent came flooding back, and time began to clear

For a fleeting moment I had you

And then you weren\'t there.
