Marianne

I wake up at midnight and stare at the sky
I watch the steps on the escalator go by
The last time I saw you is clear as day
Just like the Boston song you were walking away

We knew each other for longer than ever
And your love’s sunshine I shall forget never
My thoughts are frozen in time to stay
What a fool I was for I let you get away

I cannot take back the pain I have caused
You can never get back the years that you lost
Here’s hoping you find love and go your own way
While I wallow in regret ’til my dying day
