Said her name was Marie From the banks of the Lee 
With the prettiest eyes my own had ever seen 
Her hair like ripples They danced with the tide 
As our hearts washed away to the sea 
Was she sent down from the heavens above 
Her breath pure as whiskey my heart fell in love 
Now the devil is courtin' a different tune 
And I laugh as the tears was the rain 

Tell me why no one's listenin' 
Is there nothing at all left to say 
In a world so unforgiving 
You mean more to me each every day 
So may the living be dead in our wake 

One cold winters night behind the clouds stars did hide 
And the ghost of our souls thanking Christ we're alive 
Our spirits they crackled with lovers first sight 
Till the mornin' came fresh with a new 
Will you dance with me now heavens child sang the clown 
We've nothing left to lose but your wings and my frown 
Where over the hills the valleys will ring 
To the sound of our love singin' true 

So tell me why no one's listenin' 
Is there nothing at all left to say 
In a world so unforgiving 
You mean more to me each every day 
So may the living be dead in our wake 

But the summer sun is melting now 
With the leaves I'll soon be gone 
Will you have the strength when the emptiness shadows fall 
Or will your aching heart be ripped apart 
By the beating from the storm 
Or will howling gales like yesterdays be gone 
Yeah be gone, gone 

Was she sent down from the heavens above 
Her breath pure as whiskey my heart fell in love 
Now the devil is courtin' a different tune 
And I laugh as the tears was the rain 

Tell me why no one's listenin' 
Is there nothing at all left to say 
In a world so unforgiving 
You mean more to me each every day 
So may the living be dead in our wake 	

Tell me why no one's listenin' 
Is there nothing at all left to say 
In a world so unforgiving 
You mean more to me each every day 
So may the living be dead in our wake
