The Day I Met Marie

Imagine a still summer's day When nothing is moving Least of all me I lay on my back in the hay The warm sun was soothing It made me feel good The Day I Met Marie The sound of her whispered hello Came tiptoeing softly into my head I opened my eyes kind of slow There she was smiling It made me feel good The Day I Met Marie With her laughing eyes She tossed her hair and tantalized She came, she touched me, then she'd gone Just like a summer breeze I remember her kiss So soft on my brow And the way that she said Baby go to sleep now Baby go to sleep now I woke with a chill in the air The warm sun no longer hung in the sky I reached out but she was not there She'd gone where she came from But I still feel good To think I've known Marie With her laughing eyes She tossed her hair and tantalized She came, she touched me, then she'd gone Just like a summer breeze
