The Shadows - Day I Met Marie lyrics

rate me

Imagine a still summer's day

When nothing is moving

Least of all me

I lay on my back in the hay

The warm sun was soothing

It made me feel good

The day I met Marie

The sound of her whispered hello

Came tiptoeing softly into my head

I opened my eyes kind of slow

There she was smiling

It made me feel good

The day I met Marie

With her laughing eyes

She tossed her hair and tantalized

She came, she touched me, then she'd gone

Just like a summer breeze

I remember her kiss

So soft on my brow

And the way that she said

Baby go to sleep now

Baby go to sleep now

I woke with a chill in the air

The warm sun no longer hung in the sky

I reached out but she was not there

She'd gone where she came from

But I still feel good

To think I've known Marie

With her laughing eyes

She tossed her hair and tantalized

She came, she touched me, then she'd gone

Just like a summer breeze
