Come over to the window, my little darling
I'd like to try to read your palm
I used to think I was some kind of Gypsy boy
Before I let you take me home

So long, Marianne
It's time we began
To laugh and cry and cry
And laugh about it all again

Well you know I'd love to live with you
But you make me forget so very much
I forget to pray for the angels
And then the angels forget to pray for us

So long, Marianne
It's time we began
To laugh and cry and cry
And laugh about it all again

Oh, you are such a pretty one
I see you've gone and changed your name again
And just when I climbed this whole mountainside
To wash my eyelids in the rain

So long, Marianne
It's time we began
To laugh and cry and cry
And laugh about it all again
So long, Marianne
It's time we began
To laugh and cry and cry
And laugh about it all again
