His Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dear you I'm serenading,
My love you've been evading,
No wonder I am blue...Oh listen to my pleading,
Your nearness I am needing,
It's time that you were heeding,
My offering to you...We` Marie, we` Marie,
Quanto sonno agiu perso per te,
We` Marie, we` Marie,
Quanto sonno agiu perse per te,
Famme` durmi, we` Marie, we` Marie..
We` Marie, we` Marie,
Quanto sonno agiu perse per te,
Famme` durmi, we` Marie, we` Marie!
The lyrics of "Oh Marie" by His Orchestra convey a sense of longing and desperation from the perspective of the singer. The song begins with the singer expressing their admiration for Marie, who they have been serenading. However, they lament that she has been evading their love, resulting in their melancholy state. The fading day serves as a metaphor for the passing time and the urgency of the situation.
The singer pleads for Marie's attention, emphasizing their need for her closeness. They assert that it is time for her to heed their affectionate offering. The repetition of the line "Oh listen to my pleading, your nearness I am needing" highlights the emotional intensity and desperation the singer feels. They long for Marie to acknowledge their love and reciprocate their feelings.
The chorus further amplifies the singer's sentiments, as they express how much sleep they have lost because of their unrequited love for Marie. The phrase "Quanto sonno agiu perse per te" translates to "How much sleep have I lost for you." This line showcases the sleepless nights and emotional toll that their love for Marie has taken on them.
In the final repetition of the chorus, the singer continues to express their desire for Marie's affection and implores her to make them sleep by embracing them throughout the night. The repetition of "we` Marie, we` Marie" at the beginning and end of the chorus adds a sense of longing and emphasis to the plea. The song concludes with the singer still hoping for Marie's love and desperately longing to be with her.
