Robert Seer - Marianne Lyrics

I had a dream you were around
Looking down upon the love we knew
As some will do

I took a breath and held it in
At the precipice before a well-placed grin
To let you win

And then I went and sailed away
Across a moonlight sky to save the day
I did think more than twice you'd understand as you held my hand
Marianne

I hope that life has done you kind
The way you brightened up the weary mind, I've left behind
A world away within my heart
An elemental spark within the dark
Where angels park

Before they turn and fly away
Across a universe to save the day
I did pray more than twice you'd understand
As you let them land
Marianne

Left to save my son
And left the only one for me
I know I can't explain
I guessed you'd do the same

Moondance on the radio
Chick peas on the table and dancing slow still let me know
That you were always here with me
On the seaside singing wild and free
So endlessly

Sorry that I said goodbye
Across the deep blue sea, I wondered why
We were ever meant to be or meant to fly
By any plans
Marianne
