Marie lyrics
by Randy Newman
[Verse 1]
You looked like a princess the night we met
With your hair piled up high, I will never forget
I'm drunk right now, baby, but I've got to be
Oh, I never could tell you what you mean to me
[Chorus]
But I loved you the first time I saw you
And I always will love you, Marie
I loved you, I loved you the first time I saw you
And I always will love you, Marie
[Verse 2]
You're the song that the trees sing when the wind blows
You're a flower, you're a river, you're a rainbow
And sometimes you're crazy, but I guess you know
That I'm weak and I'm lazy and I hurt you so
And you know, I don't listen to a word you say
And when you're in trouble, I turn away
[Chorus]
But I loved you, I loved you the first time I saw you
And I always will love you, Marie
Yes, I loved you, I loved you the first time I saw you
God knows I always will love you, Marie
