The day i met Marie


Imaging a still summer's day.
when nothing is moving.
least of all me.
i lay on my back in the hay.
the warm sun was soothing.
it made me feel good.
the day i met marie.
The sound of her whisper hello.
came tiptoing softly into my head.
i opened my eyes kinda slow.
and there she was smiling.
it made me feel good.
the day i met marie.
With the laughing eyes.
she'd toss her hair and tantalize.
she came to touch me then she's gone
just like a summer breeze.
I remember her kiss
so soft on my brow
and the way that she said
baby go to sleep now
baby go to sleep now
I woke with the chill in the air
the warm sun no longer hung in the sky
i reached out but she was not there
she'd gone where she came from
but i still feel good
to think i've known marie
with the laughing eyes
she'd toss her hair and tantalize
she came to touch me then she's gone
just like a summer breeze
