Album: Red Skies Over Paradise

Marliese

I told them I take photos for this magazine.
They let me in to see you comg your hair.
I watched for signs as I came through that door.
The anxious eyes that I've been waiting for.
It's no use hoping I'm a dream.

Chorus
Oh Marliese.
The waiting almost brough me to my knees.
Oh Marliese
You didn't really think I'd leave you in peace.

It's no use cryin out 'cos they can't help you now.
You're forced to hear the words I have to say.
I saw your face when I was taken down.
You seemes so pleased, you're not happy now.
It's your turn to be afraid.

Oh Marliese.
The waiting almost brough me to my knees.
Oh Marliese
You didn't really think I'd leave you in peace.

So where's the smooth composure of the movie star.
You must have played this many times before.
Do I see tears? Well surely that's not true.
Don't kind yourself, it's not worth hurting you.
But remember when you try to sleep.

Oh Marliese.
The waiting almost brough me to my knees.
Oh Marliese
You didn't really think I'd leave you in peace.
