Marie Lyrics by Enuff Z’Nuff

1985

1994

[Verse 1]
She's got a look, a heart that's good as gold
But that's not all she's got, despite what I've been told
She read me like a book, now I'm feeling two years old
Wondering what she's not, and what she wants to hold
And why she wants it

[Chorus]
Marie, let's go away today
I've well outlived the games we play
Something's got to go, let it go now
Trying to catch the show, tickets sold out

[Verse 2]
Like a shoemaker's elf hiding in the rough
Working all the time, that's not good enough
If the credit isn't mine, try to tell myself
Just go and leave things nice
But you know how that goes
And takes her own advice

[Chorus]
Marie, let's go away today
I've well outlived the games we play
Something's got to go, let it go now
Trying to catch the show, tickets sold out

[Bridge]
Oh-oh-oh-oh, our world is like a hot air balloon
Flame holds us up, the heat is all we have to lose
Still, something keeps us tied to the ground
We've got to cut loose the ropes, we're just hanging around

[Verse 3]
Kiss your pretty face and that leads me to more
We need to find a place where we control the door
And when the door is closed and no one can come in
To rain on our parade, tell them where we've been

[Chorus]
Marie, let's go away today
I've well outlived the games we play
Something's got to go, let it go now
Trying to catch the show, tickets sold out

[Outro]
Oh, Marie, let's go away today, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Marie, let's go away today, ooh-ooh-ooh
Marie, let's go away today, Marie, Marie, Marie
(Marie, let's go away today) Yeah, yeah
Woo!
