Lyric

I saw you by the door

Red scarf, black boots, gold ring

You laughed like you knew more

Than anybody in the room

Your name hung in the air

Like perfume on my sleeve

Marilyn, you were there

And suddenly I couldn’t leave

Tell me why

You look away

Then pull me back

With just one sway

I try to talk

You cut me through

One little smile

And I’m into you

Marilyn, Marilyn

Say my name back

Marilyn, Marilyn

Don’t make me track

Your shadow down

Across the floor

Marilyn, Marilyn

I want one more

You kept your heart in lock

Behind those painted lips

But every time you walked

It felt like someone turned the grip

I found your number tucked

Inside a folded note

Marilyn, I almost lost

The nerve to even hope

Tell me why

You look away

Then pull me back

With just one sway

I try to talk

You cut me through

One little smile

And I’m into you

Marilyn, Marilyn

Say my name back

Marilyn, Marilyn

Don’t make me track

Your shadow down

Across the floor

Marilyn, Marilyn

I want one more

Maybe you’re trouble

Maybe I am too

But every road I take

Still bends to you

So if you’re leaving

Leave me a sign

Marilyn, I’m standing

Right here in line

Marilyn, Marilyn

Say my name back

Marilyn, Marilyn

Don’t make me track

Your shadow down

Across the floor

Marilyn, Marilyn

I want one more

Marilyn, Marilyn

Don’t go too fast

Marilyn, Marilyn

Make this one last
