Let fall your soft and swaying skirt
Let fall your shoes, let fall your shirt
I'm not the lady killing sort
Enough to hurt a girl in port
[Verso 1]
Marie's gone blonde and lost a stone
She lay on her lawn, spun and alone
And, when the morning sun it rose
Upon Marie in her lacy clothes
[Verso 2]
It lit her up, and she walked around
The winding streets of Camden Town
She don't know who she wants to be
And if I knew, I'd tell Marie
[Coro]
[Verso 3]
Cindy tells me she's had fun
Sitting backstage, someone's plus one
Up in her room the records spin
Needle in the grooves that she's worn thin
[Verso 4]
She lifts a sleeve and she sees a name
And she's got a smile on her face
And she's got a story you can't see
It's just between that name and Cindy
[Verso 5]
And before Holly made her way
Over the sea and far away
She's telling me, inside her car
Driving us back from the Crystal Corner bar
[Verso 6]
"I lost it there, I fell from health
Cut some fresh pieces from myself"
And then, for a second, something in me
Said, "Leave today. It's time, Holly"
[Verso 7]
Well, I'm a weak and lonely sort
Though I'm not sailing just for sport
I've come to feel, out on the sea
These urgent lives press against me
[Verso 8]
I'm just a guest. I'm not a part
With my tender head, with my easy heart
These several years out on the sea
Have made me empty, cold, and clear. Pour yourself into me
