Marlene

(album: My Only Fascination - 1974)

As I walk along the river Seine I think I see her on the lane, Marlene
As I reach her hands I won't feel anything but sand Marlene je t'aime, Marlene
People of the night are now coming up into sight singing my pain, Marlene
Strangers in a car believe the love song is to last ignoring pain

Shadows of the past blowing candle lights witnessing at night Marlene
Shadows in my heart calling me apart whispering your name Marlene, ooh

As we drove along the river Seine we made a vow but vows are vain, Marlene
We promised that we would meet again but no one showed back on the lane, Marlene
Now love is a thing that I came by a ring behind your window pane, Marlene
Souvenirs will haunt me till I die off with no pain no one's to blame

Shadows of the past blowing candle lights witnessing at night Marlene
Shadows in my heart calling me apart whispering your name Marlene, ooh
