Letra de The Band Played Sweet Marie

[Verse 1]
I bought my love a violin so he could play for me
I bought my love a violin to calm the waves of the stormy sea
Though he'd be gone the longest time, he'd return again to me
And every note my darling played took further away my love from me
[Verse 2]
My name's Maria Robinson, he called me "Sweet Marie"
And that's the song that all night long my darling boy would play to me
All through that long remembered night, I heard that melody
And the notes he played while thе few were savеd took further away my love from me
[Verse 3]
The ship went down to the mournful sound of my sweetheart's violin
With no safety vest, he strapped to his chest the case he'd placed it gently in
Though the icy water froze his breath, it never froze his heart
By the song he played, a pact was made that my love and I would never part
[Verse 4]
I bought my love a violin so he could play for me
I bought my love a violin to calm the waves of the stormy sea
There are those who say Wallace Hartley played "Nearer, My God, to Thee"
But our souls were bound as that great ship went down, and in my heart, the band played "Sweet Marie"
And in my heart, the band played "Sweet Marie"
