Whoa, here I am 
On my knees again 
I'll do anything 
Just to make it right
Say you'll understand 
I know you can 
C'mon, Marianne - Marianne

It don't matter what people say - people say
It didn't happen that way - happen that way
She was a passing swing - passing swing
And not a permanent thing - permanent thing
Say you'll understand - understand
Yes, I know you can - know you can

C'mon - Marianne, Baby
C'mon - Marianne, Baby
C'mon - Marianne, Baby
Say you can understand
My Marianne, Marianne, Marianne, Marianne

Well, now your big brown eyes - big brown eyes
Are all full of tears - full of tears
From the bitterness - bitterness
Of my cheatin' years - cheatin' years
So I hang my head - hang my head
I wish that I was dead - I was dead

C'mon - Marianne, Baby
C'mon - Marianne, Baby
C'mon - Marianne, Baby

You think you got the best of me
Think you had the last laugh
Bet you think that everything good is gone
Think you left me broken down
Think that I'd [bad word] back
Baby you don't know me, cause you're devil

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes a fire
Put that thing on ligher
Doesn't mean I'm over cause you'r gone

Whoa, here I am 
On my knees again 
I'll do anything 
Just to make it right
Say you'll understand 
I know you can 
C'mon, Marianne - Marianne

You didn't think that [bad word] back
 [bad word] back swinging

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes a fire
Put that thing on ligher
Doesn't mean I'm over cause you'r gone

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, stronger
Just me, myself and I
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone.
