The lyrics to Höhner's song "Marie" take us down memory lane as the singer reminisces about their past experiences with their friend Marie during the flower power era. The singer narrates how they used to have long hair and wear bell bottoms with their parents' shoes. They used to have the Stones on their mind and it was a good thing. They urge Marie to come and listen to the record with them and escape into the music. They even talk about the first time they snuck off to be alone with each other behind the basement door. They recall the good times they had with the Beatles on their minds.
Overall, the song invokes nostalgia of the past and how much fun it was to be young and carefree. The song urges listeners to not forget these moments and to revisit them. It is a reminder to live in the present and to cherish the memories of the past.
