Marlena - David McWilliams

Marlena, speak to me

I take all my strength from your smile

The moment I see you

I wish you would stop for a while

My heart skips a beat

And my head turns around

But for you, I just don’t exist

Yet you’re worth every moment

Though my mind tries to tell me

Of the things I know I have missed

Marlena I love you

Though to me you’re a queen with a crown

I watched you grow up

I saw you in your wedding gown

And though I can’t have you

It’s better to sit here

It’s better to sit here alone

Than to try find somebody

To take your place baby

It’s better to sit here and moan

Yes though my heart’s heavy

I’ll sit here and hope

That some day your heart will be free

For no other woman

Could ever come closer to me

Though you don’t need me now

Perhaps someday

You’ll be left behind

Yes some day maybe

You want me baby

Yes I hope that someday

You’ll be mine
