ready to fall into bed.

He knew his happiness hung by a wire,

if she could believe what he said.

Through the door and into the hall,

Hoping to find what he missed.

No books on the floor, no art on the wall,

she left nothing to show she exists.

Oh, darling Marie, come home.

Come home and help me try,

Oh Marie, I'm still here

Waiting for you to decide.

Crying wolf, just too many times,

No-one answered your call.

We never knew you were drunk every night,

Waiting for justice to fall.

CH/Oh, darling Marie, come home.

Come home and help me fly.

Oh Marie, I'm still here

Waiting for you to decide.

She can bloom like a flower in season,

now she can grow,

She is free, she can sing like the birds in the trees,

Only now she is solo.

She left home with his life in her hands,

Hoping to find a new way.

She won't toe the line and she now understands,

How to stop her life turning so grey.

Oh, darling Marie, come home.

Come home and tell me why.

Oh Marie, I'm still here

Waiting for you to decide.

Oh, darling Marie , come home.

Come home, forget my lies.

Oh Marie, I'm still here

Waiting for you to decide.
