Songtexte

[Intro]
That's never happened before, mh
[Instrumental]
The ghost of her floats over there
And the smile, the smile, it seemed so lonely
She gave me her hand as they struck up the band
And she seemed to sigh, she seemed to sigh, "You're the only"
And we danced like two snowflakes
In the falling wind, in the wind
And if I ever go
Won't you let Marlene come in
[Verse 1]
Gymnasium floor, the brass-bound door
The jungle bird, the jungle bird that you showed me
Her love was so clean, to tell the truth, Marlene
The beat bof your tambourine still haunts me
We were so young then
Now that I'm old I know, oh, I know
I loved you right then
I would have made Marlene let go
[Verse 2]
My friends in the bars, hell, they only see the scars
And I do not give a damn, I do not give a damn that I loved you
I do know why, but once you've seen the sky
You think you know all birds are lovely
But there's snow on the ground
In Woodstock tonight
It's twenty-two years, dear
Since I saw the light
[Verse 3]
The world, it explodes, as such a high-powered load
To run, to run, to run was all I left me
Up here there’s breeze, high in the clouds we're free
To fly, to fly away was the lesson
And all the fire had burned her life out
It left me little more
I'm crippled singer
And it evens up the score
[Instrumental]
The ghost of her floats over there
And the smile, the smile it seems, seems so lonely
She gave me her hand as I struck up the band
And she seemed to sigh, she seemed to sigh, "You're the only"
Then we danced like two snowflakes
In the falling wind, in the wind
And if I ever go
Won't you let Marlene come in
[Outro]
And if I ever go
Won't you let Marlene come in
