Testo My Marie

My Marie (Gene Clark, Pat Robinson) Duet by Gene Clark and Pat Robinson I saw you down, in the underground With a knight in tarnished armor, You looked a little harder, But there was softness in your smile The magic spell, you weave so well Still lives in me unbroken, My love for you unspoken, Though it's been here all the while CHORUS I can't believe it's really you, my Marie Have you finally realized, where you want to be I've known for sometime Somewhere down the line You were meant to be with me, Marie The last I heard, your painted word Still lived with canvas dancers Who asked you for no answers To the questions you deny You bring the darkened walls to light While the city rolls in slumber Reflecting what you remember From the ages you've survived CHORUS Your brush it swirls, through worlds now lost To wars of greed and passion And to the few that do survive There is no satisfaction The angry sons, who pound the drums Of dogma and religion Know nothing of your vision That true love never dies I've plundered through a fortune Just to take a beggar's wages While I try to write the pages Of this book of many lives CHORUS So here we meet, on a one-way street, In this village full of clutter You know that no one knows you like ? You know there is "no other" ? The mirror of the morning Finds a poet half awakened With a song that was mistaken For a dream still in his mind ? CHORUS
