Al Bowlly

Seventeen nights away she's leaving

'Cause everything she found was fake

Oh tell me why

I don't know why

Why does she have to leave

No one has told me she's ended up there

All I can do is to keep being here yeah

Marie my friend Marie my friend

I sing for you

Marie my friend Marie my friend

This is your song

Seventeen skies away she's fallin'

'Cause everything she had has gone

Oh tell me why

I don't know why

Why does she have to leave

No one has told me she's ended up there

All I can do is to keep being here yeah

Marie my friend Marie my friend

I sing for you

Marie my friend Marie my friend

This is your song

Couldn't' take your hand

I should've done this before

I'm so shocked now

You changed my world

Don't go away like this

Oh tell me why

I don't know why

Why you have been so strong

No one has held you but you spread your wings

All I can do is to keep being here yeah

Marie my friend Marie my friend

I sing for you

Marie my friend Marie my friend

This is your song
