Lonely Sweet Marie

She's just sitting there beating on her drum 
  Waiting a new winters promises never come 
  Regrets can't undo 
  No one knows where she's gone 
  Except the one she loved the most 
  Her cup of wine he did spill 
  A white wedding ghost 

  By the river walks lonely sweet Marie 
  Just yesterday crowned the beauty queen 
  Lonely sweet Marie 

  I drove all the way from California 
  Just to hear the river cry 
  As I road a dream it warned me 
  Not to look into the light 
  If she'd take me I would go, yeah 
  Will I see her tonight 

  By the river walks lonely sweet Marie 
  Just yesterday crowned the beauty queen 
  Lonely sweet Marie 

  By the river walks lonely sweet Marie 
  Just yesterday crowned the beauty queen 
  By the river walks lonely sweet Marie 
  Just yesterday crowned the beauty queen 
  Lonely sweet Marie 

  Oh Marie 
  Don't be lonely 
  I'm here 
  Take me now
