Annie Marie Cherie lyrics

I used to know this girl, Marie
And so the story goes, she never really talked to me
Her house was seven blocks away
On my way to school I went to see if she's okay

Tell me where have you gone, where have you gone Marie?
Why did you leave? Come back to me Cherie
I know you went away, you went away Marie
You cannot stay, you cannot stay Cherie
Please stay with me Marie Cherie, here in me

Oh no, I did not treat you right
You're in the senses lost, you never had the chance to fly
She looked so pretty like a dream
Her skin's like velvet cream, she never made a sweet sixteen

Nobody came around to see her
It was as if she wasn't there
A lone butterfly that's caught in a [Incomprehensible]

[Incomprehensible] again

Tell me, where have you gone, where have you gone Marie?
Why did you leave? Come back to me Cherie
I know you went away, you went away Marie
You cannot stay, you cannot stay Cherie
Please stay with me Marie Cherie, here in me

I know you went away, you went away Marie
You cannot stay, you cannot stay Cherie

Tell me, where have you gone, where have you gone Marie?
Why did you leave? Come back to me Cherie
I know you went away, you went away Marie
You cannot stay, you cannot stay Cherie
Please stay with me Marie Cherie, here in me
