Oh, here I am on my knees again
I’ll do anything just to make it right
Say you understand
oh I know you can
C’mon Marianne (mmh mmh)

Don’t matter what people say
It didn’t happen that way
She was a passing fling
 Not a permanent thing
Say you understand
oh I know you can

C’mon Marianne (Marianne)
C’mon Marianne (Marianne)
C’mon Marianne (Marianne)
Say you can understand my Marianne

Well your big brown eyes
are all full of tears
From the bitterness
of those lonely years
So I hang my head
wish that I were dead

C’mon Marianne (Marianne)
C’mon Marianne (Marianne)
C’mon Marianne (Marianne)
Say you can understand my Marianne

C’mon Marianne, C’mon Marianne
Oh Marianne, Marianne, Marianne
Oh Marianne
