first aid kit - so long marianne lyrics
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
but you make me forget so very much
i forget to pray to the angels
and 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
now so long, marianne, it’s time that we began
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
well, your letters they all say that you’re beside me now
then why do i feel 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 are really such a pretty one
i see you’ve gone and changed 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
