Come over to the window, my little darling I'd like to try to read your palm I used to think I was some kind of gypsy boy Before I let you take me home Now so long, Marianne, it's time that 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 me Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again ♪ We met when we were almost young Deep in the green lilac park You held on to me like I was a crucifix As we went kneeling through the dark Oh, so long, Marianne, it's time that we began To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again ♪ Your letters they all say that you're beside me now But then why do I feel so alone? I'm standing on a ledge and your fine spider web Is fastening my ankle to a stone Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again ♪ For now I need your hidden love I'm cold as a new razor blade You left when I told you I was curious I never told you I was brave Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again ♪ Oh, you're such a pretty one I see you've gone and change your hair again And just when I climbed this whole mountainside To wash my eyelids in the rain Oh, so long, Marianne, it's time that we began To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again ♪ Oh tonight, I know I am gonna forget tonight Your body is at home in every scene I probably gave away your news to everyone That you said was a secret to me Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again ♪ Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
