The Day I Met Marie
Capturing the Essence of a Summer Day: The Day I Met Marie by Cliff Richard
Lyrics
Imaging a still summer's day.
Imagining a calm summer day.
When nothing is moving.
When everything is still.
Least Of All Me.
Nobody is moving, especially not the speaker.
I lay on my back in the hay.
Lying on the hay, looking up.
The warm sun was soothing.
The sun's warmth is comforting.
It made me feel good.
Feeling positive and content.
The day I met Marie.
Reflecting on the day of meeting Marie.
The Sound of her whisper hello.
Hearing Marie's soft greeting.
Came tiptoing softly into my head.
Her hello enters the speaker's thoughts gently.
I opened my eyes kinda slow.
Slowly waking up and seeing Marie smiling.
And there she was smiling.
Her presence brings joy.
It made me feel good.
Feeling good about meeting Marie.
The day I met Marie.
Reflecting on the positive impact of that day.
With the laughing eyes.
Describing Marie's eyes with joy and laughter.
She'd toss her hair and tantalize.
She playfully tosses her hair and captivates.
She came to touch me then she's gone
Marie's presence is fleeting, like a summer breeze.
Just like a summer breeze.
Highlighting the transient nature of the moment.
I remember her kiss
Recalling the softness of Marie's kiss.
So soft on my brow
Her words urging the speaker to sleep.
And the way that she said
Remembering Marie's sweet words.
Baby go to sleep now
Repeating the comforting words to sleep.
Baby go to sleep now
(Empty line, no specific meaning provided.)
I woke with the chill in the air
Waking up to a colder atmosphere.
The warm sun no longer hung in the sky
The warmth of the sun is gone.
I reached out but she was not there
Reaching out, but Marie is not there.
She'd gone where she came from
Realizing Marie has left.
But I still feel good
Still feeling good despite her absence.
To think I've known Marie
Reflecting on the positive memory of Marie.
With the laughing eyes
Describing Marie's eyes again.
She'd toss her hair and tantalize
Reiterating her captivating presence.
She came to touch me then she's gone
Emphasizing the fleeting nature of her touch.
Just like a summer breeze
Comparing her departure to a summer breeze.
