Marie by The Mayas

I.
Come closer, and let me tell you something,
About a girl who’s living in a not - so - plain, wild world.
Keep in touch, take a look, there's something tingling,
Like a little thought in the dark night, mark my word.

Bridge 1.
Well she’s not just any average girl,
She’s simple but rather strange.
Oh, how life will be in such a twirl,
If this hasn't gotten changed.

III.
Day and night, if you get luck in your might,
You may have seen her at least then once or twice.
Well, for me, it doesn't sound so nice.
Right when she looks at you so cold like some sort of stone cold ice.

Bridge 2:
It's like you're always stuck up,
On something you can't even tell.
But it's one word and another to say that,
It doesn't always ring a bell.

Chorus:
There she shines, there she shines,
There she shines, my girl, Marie.
There she shines, there she shines,
She’s a bona fide mystery.
There she shines, there she shines,
There she shines, my girl, Marie.
There she shines, not enough to summarize,
This silly story.

IV.
I used to ignore the fact that she’s just really different,
From any girl I’ve ever met, hand - in - hand.
And for me, there were words that I could’ve meant,
Or maybe she's just having a monthly visit from Poland.

Bridge 2:
It's like you're always stuck up,
On something you can't even tell.
But it's one word and another to say that,
It doesn't always ring a bell.

Chorus:
There she shines, there she shines,
There she shines, my girl, Marie.
There she shines, there she shines,
She’s a bona fide mystery.
There she shines, there she shines,
There she shines, my girl, Marie.
There she shines, not enough to summarize...

V.
I never ever have thought,
"What would I do and understand",
The need to withstand.

VI.
All of this silly mayhem,
About loving a girl,
You'll never ever comprehend in your little head.

Bridge 2:
It's like you're always stuck up,
On something you can't even tell.
But it's one word and another to say that,
It doesn't always ring a bell.

Chorus:
There she shines, there she shines,
There she shines, my girl, Marie.
There she shines, there she shines,
She’s a bona fide mystery.
There she shines, there she shines,
There she shines, my girl, Marie.
There she shines, not enough to summarize,
This silly story.
