Marseille

In a graveyard in Marseille
Where we dreamt our lives away
A long long time ago
Well I love you so
Well I know you won’t be saved
By romantic words I say
But I love you so
A long long time ago
Well we’re by forgotten graves
Where no one now does pray
And we hold hands which we know time
Is gonna pull away
By another’s grave
Christmas cards are lain
Which say I love you so
A long long time ago
Well we’re by forgotten graves
Where no one now does pray
And we hold hands which we know time
Is gonna wrench away
In the graveyards of Marseille
In the graveyards of Marseille
A long long time ago
