  • I used to know this girl marie
    and so the story goes, she never really talked to me
    her house was seven blocks away
    on my way to school I went to see if she's okay

    tell me, where have you gone
    where have you gone, marie
    why did you leave
    come back to me, cherie
    I know you went away
    you went away, marie
    you cannot stay
    you cannot stay, cherie
    please stay with me, marie cherie
    here in me

    oh no, I did not treat you right
    you're in the senses lost, you never had the chance to fly
    she looked so pretty, like a dream
    her skin's like velvet cream, she never made a sweet sixteen

    nobody came around to see her
    it was as if she was not there
    a lone butterfly that's caught in a net (?)
    ...

    tell me, where have you gone
    where have you gone, marie
    why did you leave
    come back to me, cherie
    I know you went away
    you went away, marie
    you cannot stay
    you cannot stay, cherie
    please stay with me, marie cherie
    here in me

    I know you went away
    you went away, marie
    you cannot stay
    you cannot stay, cherie
    tell me, where have you gone
    where have you gone, marie
    why did you leave
    come back to me, cherie
    I know you went away
    you went away, marie
    you cannot stay
    you cannot stay, cherie
    please stay with me, marie cherie
    here in me Writer/s: ANNE LILA BERGE STRAND, HANNAH ROBINSON, TIMO KAUKOLAMPI, YNGVE SAETRE
