Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Marie, you'll soon be waking
To find, your heart is breaking
And tears, will fall, as you recall
The moon, in all its splendor,
The kiss, so very tender,
The words "will you surrender"
To me, my Marie
The song "Marie" by Willie Nelson and Family is a melancholic love song about someone named Marie who is heartbroken and crying as she thinks back to a past love. The opening lines suggest a new day breaking and the inevitability of Marie waking up to realize her heartache. The lyrics reference the moon's beauty and a gentle kiss as Willie Nelson asks Marie to surrender herself to him.
The verses paint a picture of a love that was once tender and sweet but has since crumbled leaving Marie in sadness. However, the chorus implies that even though she is crying and remembering past love, Marie will find happiness again in the future.
Overall, the song is a touching tribute to lost love and the hope of new beginnings. It reminds listeners that even though heartbreak can be devastating, one can always find happiness again.

Marie, the dawn is breaking,
Marie, it's early morning and the sky is getting lighter
Marie, you'll soon be waking
Marie, you'll wake up soon
To find, your heart is breaking
To discover that your heart is being torn apart
And tears, will fall, as you recall
And you'll cry as you remember
The moon, in all its splendor,
Seeing the beautiful moon shining bright
The kiss, so very tender,
The gentle and loving kiss we shared
The words "will you surrender"
Asking you to give in and be with me
To me, my Marie
To be mine, my dear Marie

It might seem like a bad performance to sing this much off beat and somehow still keep track of the music, but it actually takes enormous musical talent.
