Marilyn

If only I had known
yesterday, yesterday
to memorize your smile,
oh Marilyn, Marilyn.

Tomorrow may not come
for all of us, all of us,
and today is almost over,
oh Marilyn, Marilyn.

If all that I have left
is the smell of your perfume
and the empty space
beside me.
I will not forget
the sound of your voice
singing, Marilyn, oh Marilyn.

All the words we've shared
are not enough, not enough
to tell you how I feel,
oh Marilyn, Marilyn

So I will ask God
for one more day, one more day
and one more chance to sing
with you, Marilyn, Marilyn.

And our last song
I will carry in my heart
to keep you
near me.
And I will not forget
the sound of your voice
singing, Marilyn, oh Marilyn.
