telephone ringing in the dead of night
 knock on the door & a deep blue sigh
 The dagger, the coffin holding her body
 Being lowered into the ground

 Longing for her touch & the smell of her hair
 Her gentle lips & her eyes of despair
 Kissing her feet & ankles & then
 Working my way up her legs

 All along her thighs from her belly toward her [bad word] 
 Happily floating among her softness
 All along her back & then up again
 Finally finding her neck

 Marie, Marie, this world seems so empty without thee

 Oh, Marie, now that you‘re gone
 You, my one delight
 Who’s gonna kiss your mouth, cheeks & tongue
 Each lip & each eye ?

 They found you nude & bundled in a sheet of plastic
 the night you were taken from me
 Feels like I was doused with cold water
 & left to freeze in the snow

 Oh, Marie, I don’t know where I’m going
 But I gotta get there soon
 They say losing all hope is freedom
 Well, I guess I’m free now
