The Day I Met Marie

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 whisper hello. Came tiptoing softly into my head. I opened my eyes kinda slow. And there she was smiling. It made me feel good. The day I met Marie. With the laughing eyes. She'd toss her hair and tantalize. She came to touch me then she's 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 the 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 the laughing eyes She'd toss her hair and tantalize She came to touch me then she's gone Just like a summer breeze
