Marian (version)
Sisters Of Mercy
First and Last and Always (1986)

In a sea of faces, in a sea of doubt
In this cruel place your voice above the maelstrom
In the wake of this ship of fools I'm falling further down
If you can see me, Marian, reach out and take me home.....

CHORUS
I hear you calling Marian
Across the water, across the wave
I hear you calling Marian
Can you hear me calling you to
Save me, save me, save me from the
Grave...
Marian

Marian, there's a weight above me
And the pressure is all too strong
To breathe deep
Breathe long and hard
To take the water down and go to sleep
To sink still further
Beneath the fatal wave
Marian I think I'm drowning
This sea is killing me

CHORUS

What I can do and what I could do
I just don't know anymore
Give me something beautiful again
Drag me from the sea
I hear you calling Marian
Can you hear me calling?
I am here alone
I hear you calling Marian
Without your help I am lost in this place

CHORUS
[repeat Marian til end]
