| I told them I take photos for this magazine
|
| They let me in to see you comb your hair
|
| I watched for signs as I came through that door
|
| The anxious eyes that I’ve been waiting for
|
| It’s no use hoping I’m a dream
|
| Oh Marliese
|
| The waiting almost brought me
|
| To my knees
|
| Oh Marliese
|
| You never really thought that
|
| I’d leave you in peace
|
| It’s no use crying out 'cause they can’t help you now
|
| You’re forced to hear the words I have to say
|
| I saw your face when I was taken down
|
| You seemed so pleased, you’re not so happy now
|
| It’s your turn to be afraid
|
| Oh Marliese
|
| The waiting almost brought me
|
| To my knees
|
| Oh Marliese
|
| You didn’t really think that
|
| I’d leave you in peace
|
| Oh Marliese
|
| The waiting almost brought me
|
| To my knees
|
| Oh Marliese
|
| You never really thought that
|
| I’d leave you in peace
|
| So where’s the smooth composure of the movie star?
|
| You must have played this many times before
|
| Do I see tears? |
| Well, surely that’s not true
|
| Don’t kid yourself, it’s not worth hurting you
|
| But remember when you try to sleep
|
| Oh Marliese
|
| The waiting nearly brought me
|
| To my knees
|
| Oh Marliese
|
| You never really thought that
|
| I’d leave you in peace |
