John Cale & Suzanne Vega – So Long, Marianne Lyrics

Artist: John Cale & Suzanne Vega
Song: So Long, Marianne

Come over to the window, little darling
I’d like to try to read your palm
I used to think that I was some kind of gypsy boy
Before I let you take me home

So long, Marianne, it’s time that we began
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
Well you know that I love to live with you
But you make me forget so very much

I forgot to pray for the angels
And then the angels forgot to pray for us
So long, Marianne, it’s time that we began
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again

We met when we were almost young
Deep in the green lilac park
You held on to me like I was a crucifix
As we went kneeling through the dark

Your letters they all say that you’re beside me now
Then why do I feel so alone?
I’m standing on a ledge and your fine spider web
Is fastening my ankle to a stone

So long, Marianne, it’s time that we began
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
Oh you really are such a pretty one
I see you’ve gone and changed your name again

And just when I climbed the whole mountainside
To wash my eyelids in the rain
So long, Marianne, it’s time that we began
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh

So long, Marianne, it’s time that we began
To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again
