Marie
Steve Benson Lyrics

Babe, you burn strong and wild
You possess a passionate and unpredictable nature

Like a girl, you're a child
Despite your age, you exhibit youthful traits

Oho, you're giving me love
You express affection freely towards me

When you say love is gone
Your declaration that affection is absent

You've no strength to carry on
You lack the ability to persist without it

Only you tear me apart
Your actions inflict emotional distress upon me

Marie-elaine
Addressing the person by their name

I beg you, come back again
Requesting their return

I miss you, was I a fool?
Questioning their own judgement and expressing longing

I'm losing you
Acknowledging the loss of their affection

I wish you're feeling the same
Expressing desire for reciprocated affection

Oh, take me again in your arms
Asking for physical comfort and embrace

Now, your love, it slips away
Their affection is diminishing over time

A little bit for every day
The loss is gradual and incremental

Oho, you're feeling so sure
They exhibit confidence in their decisions

If is Love a game for fools
Questioning the nature of affection

I don't make these stupid rules
Rejecting responsibility for societal norms

Only you're breaking my heart
Your actions inflict emotional pain upon me

Now Marie's gone so far away
The person has left and is geographically distant

I hope she will come back one day
Expressing optimism for their return

Your love put magic into my life
Their affection had a transformative impact on their life
