Marietta

When you moved to Marietta

I couldn't watch you go

I lay awake and listened

To the car drive down the road

And I couldn't help but feel

That I'd done nothing wrong

Did I miss some kind of message?

Did you feel alone too long?

Were we drifting through the darkness

As sometimes lovers do?

Did you wonder where your dreams went, babe?

Did you find them somewhere out there in the blue?

Maybe, peace will come in time

Maybe, peace will come in time

Maybe, somewhere down the line

Peace will come in time

When you left for Marietta

The night was black and blue

You said we both needed a little change now

But I emptied my pockets for you

There's a certain kind of sadness

When a house is not a home

Did you find what you were looking for?

Is it better now you're gone?

Maybe, peace will come in time

Maybe, peace will come in time

Maybe, somewhere down the line

You will find

Peace will come in time

When you moved to Marietta

I couldn't watch you go

I lay awake and listened

To the car drive down the road
