Marion by Tom Mahnken Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I told her I loved her, I meant every word
What words she was saying, was not what I heard
"I can't love a man, who refuses to think
So I'm leaving a whose drownin' in drink"

And I don't have happiness
To keep me alive
I don't have children, or money, or time
I don't have any reason, to start the day right
I just got a bottle of bloody red wine

[Chorus]
Marion, Marion, give me a sign
When does the talking begin?
Marion, Marion, bring me my wine
When do you think you will listen?

[Verse 2]
Started as a sadness, fell out of love
It ended its hanger when [?]
Listen for hours, laugh if you please
Please speak your mind dear
Please speak to me
[Chorus]
Marion, Marion, give me a sign
When does the talking begin?
Marion, Marion, bring me my wine
When do you think you will listen?

[Bridge]
Marion sits, with her head in her hands
Marion listens, but does she understand?
Marion comes, and Marion goes
But the bottle stays with me, Marion knows

[Chorus]
Marion, Marion, give me a sign
When does the talking begin?
Marion, Marion, bring me my wine
When do you think you will listen?

Marion, Marion, give me a sign
When does the talking begin?
Marion, Marion, bring me my wine
When do you think you will listen?

Marion, Marion, give me a sign
When does the talking begin?
Marion, Marion, bring me my wine
When do you think you will listen?
