[length: 05:33]
[00:26.25]Come over to the window, my little darling,
[00:32.93]
[00:35.14]I’d like to try to read your palm.
[00:40.68]
[00:43.04]I used to think I was some kind of Gypsy boy
[00:50.74]before I let you take me home.
[00:57.44]Now so long, Marianne, it’s time that we began
[01:05.68]to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[01:17.05]Well you know that I love to live with you,
[01:30.01]but you make me forget so very much.
[01:35.91]
[01:37.97]I forget to pray for the angels
[01:44.52]and then the angels forget to pray for us.
[01:52.82]Now so long, Marianne, it’s time that we began
[02:00.94]to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[02:10.17]We met when we were almost young
[02:20.87]deep in the green lilac park.
[02:21.99]You held on to me like I was a crucifix,
[02:28.28]as we went kneeling through the dark.
[02:34.82]Oh so long, Marianne, it’s time that we began
[02:38.02]to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[02:42.08]Your letters they all say that you’re beside me now.
[02:43.48]Then why do I feel alone?
[02:44.30]I’m standing on a ledge and your fine spider web
[02:47.40]is fastening my ankle to a stone.
[02:48.16]Now so long, Marianne, it’s time that we began
[02:55.93]to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[03:04.26]For now I need your hidden love.
[03:08.12]I’m cold as a new razor blade.
[03:16.75]
[03:30.45]You left when I told you I was curious
[03:41.45]I never said
[03:41.68]I never said that I was brave.
[03:42.37]Oh so long, Marianne, it’s time that we began
[03:50.66]to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
[04:01.87]
[04:06.67]Oh, you are really such a pretty one.
[04:15.16]I see you’ve gone and changed your name again.
[04:22.92]And just when I climbed this whole mountainside,
[04:30.61]to wash my eyelids in the rain!
[04:37.55]Oh so long, Marianne, it’s time that we began
[05:04.75]to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
