Marie Day

from My Wonderful Life by Robert Gently

lyrics

Its about 9 PM when the dogs hit the streets,
They all have their stories and about half are true.
I could care less for the young and the restless,
I am just trying to get to you.
I saw you at a party and shyly approached you,
I spoke to you briefly and was immediately disarmed.
A hopeless romantic, I'm not afraid to admit
That I fell for your humor, your confidence, your charm.

The things I did to get closer to you,
Some would mayhaps call stalking.
If I ever found the words for how I feel about you,
I would probably never stop talking.

And I'll pledge my allegiene right away,
All of the world for Marie Day.
Every cloud in Heaven has gone away,
My love went unrequited by Marie Day.

I can't say I was any too pleased when I found
The rose that I'd left you laying on the ground.
It was the most crushing feeling in the entire world,
When I saw you holding hands with some other girl.
