Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Marie, you'll soon be waking (girl of my dreams, I want you)
To find our heart's are aching (have a little faith in me, la-la-la-la)
And tears will fall as you recall (tears will fall again)
The moon in all its splendor (on a night like this, we go bettin' in the park)
Your kiss, so very tender (all the way my kiss, darlin')
The words, "Will you surrender
To me, Marie?"

Marie (oh, Marie), the dawn is breaking
Oh, Marie, the new day is beginning
Marie, you'll soon be waking
Marie, you will soon awaken
To find our heart's are aching
To realize that our hearts are filled with pain
And tears will fall as you recall
And tears will stream down your face as you remember

Your gentle kiss, so full of affection

To me, Marie?"
To me, Marie?"

Thank you for posting! My grandmother had dementia but remembered songs from her youth, the last time I went to visit her she had no idea who I was but sang all the words to Alice Blue Gown.

My dad always sang this song to my mom thanks for playing it
Tommy
This is my favorite version of this song.... While I like the more upbeat renditions, this one stays true to the original waltz -- and does so with a mighty fine sweet big band and a "girl singer" with the most beautiful of singing voices!
Felino Reyes
Love the vibes of this song <3

I LOVE Frankie Masters Orchestra---he "got" what Sweet Bands captured to us who love the Sweet Bands--lilting, plaintive female vocals, great tunes, and a top shelf Orchestra. I particularly love the "Wizard of Oz" tunes, "Merry Old Land of Oz," and "If I Only Had a Brain."
You are my GO TO on all vocals and Sweet Bands, and the information gleaned is astounding!
Thank you---more of: Andy Russell, Gray Gordon, Sammy Kaye, Kay Kyser, Guy Lombardo, Buddy Clark, Tony Martin, Frankie Masters, Kenny Baker, Dick Todd, Johnnie Johnston please, The78Prof!
I'm particularly, specifically looking for Tony Martin's "I'm Stepping Out, With a Memory Tonight," and ANY AND ALL Stephen Foster tunes sung by crooners, and ranging from Nelson Eddy, Bing, Dennis Day to Steve Lawrence, Eddie Fisher and Robert Goulet.
