Sweet Marie ft. Hannah King & Flat Black Band Lyrics

Well, I saw that girl on the edge of town,

Flowers in her hair, a sundress on,

And I just had to know her name.

She's all peace 'n love and pixie dust,

Kickstarted my heart all covered in rust,

I wondered if maybe she felt the same.

Oh, Marie. Sweet Marie.

Reading tea leaves in the dark,

Dancin' all on my heart.

Oh, Marie. Yeah, sweet Marie.

What's our fortune? Oh, tell me, please.

Ever since that girl put her spell on me,

I know a lot more about astrology,

And those stars 'n why they like to shine.

She's got a tarot deck right by the bed,

And she tells me things her Angels said,

She assures me they're not the bible kind.

Oh, Marie. Sweet Marie.

Reading tea leaves in the dark,

Dancin' all on my heart.

Oh, Marie. Yeah, sweet Marie.

What's our fortune? Oh, tell me, please.

Now lightin' candles and she's burnin' sage,

Cherry wine from a tree at her mother's place,

The kind of potion that's bound to blow your mind.

She's got me standin' in the moonlight lookin' for ghosts,

She says you can hear 'em if you listen close,

I don't hear nothin' but it don't mean I'm not trying.
