Eli Marianne Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Know I'll never be your wife, no I'm not your man
You wanted tradition, right, I guess I understand
Kick me out the house, alright then, so much for the band
Love can be so typical, I never understand

[Pre-Chorus]
Somewhere in there, you know you still want me
Somewhere out there, we're starting a family
I'm the last to think of me so highly
But I'll confess to you
[Chorus]
Marianne, it keeps me up
When you're with another man
Marianne, my god, Jesus
Won't you give me onе more chance?

[Verse 2]
She looks likе a Russian doll with ribbons in her hair
Treats me like a puppy dog, I wish I didn't care
Thought I knew myself by now, (Now, now) she knows what I need (Now, now) Says we shouldn't play with love, but it's too late for me

[Pre-Chorus]
'Member when I was your one and only?
Run that back and say it with your chest
I know, I should just lie like the old me
Say we're just friends

[Chorus]
Marianne, it keeps me up (Up)
When you're with another man
Marianne, my god, Jesus
Won't you give me one more chance?

[Bridge]
(Ah-ah, ah)
(Marianne, Marianne)
I wish (I wish) you well
Girl, please do me the same (Ma- Marianne)
You lost, you left
"I changed", you bet
I'm not the man you blame
[Chorus]
Marianne, it keeps me up (Up)
When you're with another man
Marianne, my god, Jesus
Won't you give me one more chance?
