(Doc Pomus - Mort Shuman)
|
A very old friend came by today
|
'Cause he was telling everyone in town
|
About the love that he just found
|
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
|
|
Though I smiled the tears inside were a-burning
|
I wished him luck and then he said goodbye
|
He was gone but still his words kept returning
|
What else was there for me to do but cry
|
|
He talked and talked and I heard him say
|
That she had the longest blackest hair
|
The prettiest green eyes anywhere
|
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
|
|
Would you believe that yesterday
|
This girl was in my arms and swore to me
|
She'd be mine eternally
|
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
|
