James - So Long Lyrics

Come over to the window my little darling
I'd like to try and read your palm
I'm standing on a ledge and your fine spider's web
Is fastening my ankle to the bone

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
You made 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

For now i need your hidden love
I'm cold as a new razor blade
You left when i told you i was curious
But i never said that i was brave

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

About it all again

Now, you're really such a pretty one
I see you've gone and changed your name again
And just when i climbed this whole mountainside
I see you in the distance on the plains

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

About it all again

About it all again

So long marianne
So long marianne

All the fights with that big kitchen knife
All the lies and the hate that you spat
All those long, long furious nights
All those long, long furious nights
All the tears that we shed
The excitement we had
On the unmade bed with that big kitchen knife
And the crimes we committed at night
Yeah the crimes we committed at night
For a love we could never get right
For a love we could never get right

So long marianne
So long marianne
Marianne
