Mikey Wax - Marion lyrics

rate me

Stories like

how you said you knew your father would look to find

You sitting by the parkway just before your flight

Before there was a cell phone he found you fine

And in my mind

I always picture this to be in black and white

Images recapturing a simple time

Before the world had lost her way into the night

Marion

Your hands are on my shoulders

Though we’ve never met

‘cause your daughter is now older

She is dancing in

Your long white dress

Marion

Here I am

I feel your heart is beating right through her hands

Giving all the love I couldn’t understand

As you were gone before I ever had a chance

Though it won’t last

We’re separated by the present and the past

I feel as if I felt your grace just for a dance

A second chance to understand the life you had

Marion

Your hands are on my shoulders

Though we’ve never met

‘cause your daughter is now older

She is dancing in

Your long white dress

Marion

Marion

Your hands are on my shoulders

Though we’ve never met

‘cause your daughter is now older

She is dancing in

Your long white dress

Marion
