Sam Tio – Marseilles & Peru Lyrics
Artist: Sam Tio
Song: Marseilles & Peru
I know you haven’t heard from me in a couple of years
And last time you did you were dryin’ off my tears
Cause you thought that you knew better, and left me for Joe Changretta
That’s why I’m writin’ you this letter here
I never understood why you went with him down the hill
But the river sure is pretty, till she starts to swell
And they say a storm is coming, it’s gonna hit real close to home
So I’m writin’ you this letter, cause I thought you’d like to know
That there was a time when I didn’t think I’d get over you
Like the floodwalls in Marseilles and Peru
But like the water I’m rollin’ right past you, and baby so’s your memory and my blues
The boys who built the walls, they went and built ‘em twelve feet tall
With mortar, stone and blood and sweat, and lots of alcohol
But I heard it through the vine, if Illini run gets too high
That the walls won’t hold her down, so you better get outta town
Yeah there was a time when I didn’t think I’d get over you
Like the floodwalls in Marseilles and Peru
But like the water I’m rollin’ right past you, and baby so’s your memory and my blues
Girl there was a time when I didn’t think I’d get over you
Like the floodwalls in Marseilles and Peru
But like the water I’m rollin’ right past you, and baby so’s your memory and my blues
