Seventeen nights away she's leaving,
'cause everything she found was fake.

Oh, tell me why,
I don't know why,
Why does she have to leave?

No one has told me she's ended up there

All I can do, is to keep being here, yeah

Marie, my friend, Marie, my friend,
I sing for you,
Marie, my friend, Marie, my friend,
this is your song.

Seventeen skies away she's fallin'
'cause everything she had has gone,

Oh, tell me why,
I don't know why,
Why does she have to leave?

No one has told me she's ended up there

All I can do, is to keep being here, yeah

Marie, my friend, Marie, my friend,
I sing for you,
Marie, my friend, Marie, my friend,
this is your song.

Couldnt' take your hand [we'll take your hand]
I should've done this before,
I'm so shocked now,
you changed my world [you changed my world],
don't go away like this.

Oh, tell me why,
I don't know why,
Why you have been so strong?
No one has held you, but you spread your wings.

All I can do, is to keep being here, yeah

Marie, my friend, Marie, my friend,
I sing for you,
Marie, my friend, Marie, my friend,
this is your song.
