marion girl
I started off in county antrim
where the sun shines red
I was thinking about the desert
so I went off to find you instead
picked up a car by the corner
headed off you on my mind
well I wonder if you ever remembered to throw out the diaries
of your neighbourhood husband who was once a friend of mine
I drove right past a churchyard
where the wedding bells rang
they were singing songs of sweet sad remembrance
to me - but then I was looking for a sign
it was getting late and I was getting restless
all the bars were all closing up for the night
and the shutters coming down against the evening
and the moths battering themselves against the light
looking for marion girl
how can I explain
well I want to see your fanatical heart again
I drew up beside a lamp post to find a new cassette
and the whole street scene opened up in front of me
there was a mother holding up her new-born baby
and some men spraying graffittI for the land of the free (this is the land of the free)
a scottish girl she asked me about the weather
she had dark green eyes was laughing about the news
she was telling me about some story from a country love song
she wasn't you - but then who is
marion girl
how can I explain
well I wanna see your fanatical heart again
marion girl
laying in your dublin bed all morning
you come and you leave without warning
she told me she'd been seen in some second-hand store
pouring over all the old blue junkyard remains
she asked me if everything changes
I said no, why it all still stays the same
she had her short black hair cut curl it up nearly just
saying she was one of the girls
but on a sunday night here you couldn't even get arrested
and I put my foot to the floor just to get out of that place
had the feeling I was just getting tested
looking for marion girl
how can I explain
well I wanna see your heretical smile again
marion girl
well you come and you leave without warning
she used to always sing
yes she said
yes she said yes
yes she said yes yes yes
yes she said yes I will yes I will yes I will...
yes she said yes I will
yes yes yes
yes yes yes
