Lyrics
Saint Marie
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Was it something I said?
That made this seem like such a mess
Told you I was content
And you said that's less than perfect
Now my hands are both tied
But my arms are open wide
And the demon by my side
Well she is what I'll leave behind
Now that things have improved
Might be possible to lose
Every ounce of what we knew
Till we're both drained of the truth
Tread my feet in the road
Watch them worked down to bone
And the blanket is cold
And I am more than alone
Every hour you spent
And every stitch you thread
Made it easy when, when it was time
To move ahead
New machines, beauty queens
Send my heart, out to see
When you left, with no pretense
Oh saint marie, just leave me be
